28/7 - Tough in Scotland

Björk recently came home from The Open, held at Royal Troon, a beautiful links course in Scotland. Both the weather and the course offered challenging conditions and the cut was unusual high, +6. Björk came off quite well and started the first round with +2, 73 but couldn't keep up with this during his second round and missed the cut. Although of course not satisfied, Björk still takes with him some good parts and will recover and improve to come back stronger. Next tournament will be Omega European Masters, one of his favorite events of the year.

15/6 - Scandinavian Mixed

Björk played at home last week on Vasatorp GK and was well cheered on by fans, friends and family. He played really well most of it and was at the top all the way until the last 9, where he faced a bit of difficulties around the greens. The well kept course allowed for low scores and quite a few birdies. Björk finished -11 (69, 67, 68, 73) and came shared 12th. Björk will take a short break until playing again in Scottish Open in July.

21/5 - PGA Championship

Björk had quite a nice week in the major tournament at Valhalla Golf Club. He was steady from tee, approached the greens well and was solid with the putter. A troublesome bunker and a little too few birdies kept him from reaching top 20. Björk finished 39th spot with -7. He enjoyed the wellkept course and the fun atmosphere a major brings.
Next up is Sweden, the Scandinavian Mixed, 6-9th of June.
