Alexander Björk (born 7 June 1990) who is a Swedish professional golfer and since april 2018, also a European Tour winner. His first victory came in Volvo China Open

Björk turned professional in 2009 and played on the Nordic Golf League before moving on to the Challenge Tour. His breakthrough season on the Challenge Tour in 2016 was anchored by a maiden victory at Le Vaudreuil Golf Challenge, in July 2016, eventually finishing seventh in the overall Rankings.
He enjoyed a superb rookie season on the European Tour in 2017, almost claiming a maiden victory in a Rolex Series event at the HNA Open de France. In his rookie season on the European Tour he had 11 top-twenty finishes and finished 43rd on the Race to Dubai.
Alexander was an outstanding tennis player in his youth, and was one of Sweden’s top ten players as a junior before choosing to focus on golf. When Alexander is not on the golfcourse he likes to be out fishing and enjoying his time with his family and friends.

Info
22/4 - Golfing day
Yesterday Björk and coach Crisp hosted a
practice day at Glasriket GC. Eager participants showed up
and could enjoy a day out in the warm spring sun. The day
involved both practice with instructions and tips and
18 holes on the course. Björk thought it was a great day
and really enjoyed to meet up with the people participating.
30/3 - Football golf
Although there are no golf tournaments at the moment,
it's still possible to stay active. This weekend Björk was part
of the initiation of a new football golf course at Glasriks GC in
the hometown of Växjö. Together with football professionals, the Ravelli
twins, Björk and his coach Graham Crisp were invited to play
the new 18 holes. Besides playing football and going fishing, Björk
is practicing a lot and doing his gym sessions diligently.
22/3 - Break
As of now, there are no golf tournaments in sight, since we don't know how long this virus will affect our society. Tournaments have been cancelled thru april and most of may and we will have to wait and see what will happen.
8/3 - Top 10 in Qatar Masters
Björk did a great tournament this week in
Qatar and finished 6th. He played solid, 38 bogey free holes
and he showed great confidence on the greens. He finished total -11
(70,63,69,71). Björk was a bit disappointed after the last
round as he had great chances to be in the very top and din't
get the nice approaches and sensitivity in the putting that
he previosuly had during round two and three. However, what
a sign of comeback and power that he now has to build upon
going forward in 2020!
Big congratulations on Swede Niklas Lemke and his 65, finishing
in the top 3.
