Player Profile :

Undoubtedly the most improved player of 2006, Edfors won the TCL Classic, the British Masters and the Scottish Open – all within four months. At the Scottish Open, he prevailed over nine of the world’s top 30 players.

Edfors, part of Sweden’s greatest generation of golfers, has achieved success throughout the globe prior to his breakout year. He played amateur golf for the Swedish National Team and on a Division I athletic scholarship, Edfors graduated from the University of Texas at San Antonio. He then joined the Challenge Tour where he won the Fortis Challenger Open in The Netherlands and the Stanbic Zambia Open (2003), topped the Challenge Tour rankings and secured nine top ten finishes.

The Swede is a charismatic character; his wardrobe is vibrant and his swing is unorthodox.
