For the second season running, the Volvo Car Scandinavian Mixed marks a departure from the norm as players from the DP World Tour and the Ladies European Tour compete for the same prize money and places – albeit from different tees.
The tournament was originally the Scandinavian Masters. After a brief stint in 2019 as the Scandinavian Invitational, it changed considerably when it was co-sanctioned with the Ladies European Tour to become the Scandinavian Mixed. Even then, there was a wait for the first of the unique tournaments to take place owing to its cancellation in 2020 because of Covid-19.
When the event finally did take place, in 2021, 78 men and 78 women teed it up at Vallda, with Jonathan Caldwell claiming his first European Tour title by one shot over Adrian Otaegui. Immediately behind the Spaniard was Alice Hewson to claim the honour of highest-placed female.
This year, the action takes place at Halmstad, where participants compete for a share of the $2m purse, which is a sizeable increase from last year’s €1m (around $1.06m). Caldwell and Hewson return this week, but there’s no Otaegui thanks to his involvement in the first LIV Golf Invitational Series event at the Centurion Club in London. Another notable player in the field is Ingrid Lindblad. The Swedish amateur, who is from the Halmstad area, won plenty of acclaim last week for her performance in the US Women’s Open, finishing tied for 11th. She’ll be hoping to take that excellent form into this week’s event as one of the invites.
European Ryder Cup captain Henrik Stenson and 10-time women’s Major winner Annika Sorenstam, who were inducted into the Swedish Golf Hall of Fame earlier in the week, host the tournament, and each will tee it up too. Others to look out for include fellow Swedes Alex Noren and Maja Stark.
Below is a full breakdown of the prize money and field.
