Swedish FootGolf Championships follow Women’s PGA at Elisefarm

Elisefarm Golf Club turned into a rare shared stage for pro women’s golf and FootGolf, with the PGA of Sweden Championship on the LET Access Series running June 24-26 before the Swedish FootGolf Championships moved in June 26-28. The sequence put FootGolf on the same property as a 54-hole women’s event with a €50,000 purse and made the national title fight look less like a standalone gathering than part of a wider golf calendar.

For FootGolf, Svensk Golf pointed to several names that shaped the championship picture: Fredrik Jensen from Skåne, reigning individual champions Alexander Alenbring and Sofie Magnusson, and Stockholm, which entered the team competition as defending champion. Several Swedish juniors were also expected to represent the country at the first official Junior FootGolf World Cup in Germany later in the summer, giving the Elisefarm meet a role in both title chasing and player development.

That broader significance fit the structure of the Swedish FootGolf Tour itself. The 2026 season carried five confirmed events, including the Swedish Championships alongside the Kvicksund Open, Roslagen Open and Swedish Open, and the ranking was built from each player’s four best results. Those standings helped determine European Championship selections, so the result at Elisefarm carried weight well beyond the weekend and into the international pathway.

FootGolf’s place in Swedish golf is still relatively new, but it has moved quickly into an organized framework. The sport became part of Svenska Golfförbundet in 2016, and the first Swedish FootGolf Championship was staged in 2017 at Isabergs GK. Against that backdrop, Elisefarm’s ability to host a women’s developmental-tour tournament and then hand the site to FootGolf immediately after showed how firmly the sport has entered golf’s competitive calendar.

The venue itself has the infrastructure for that kind of crossover. Elisefarm says its course is a par 72 that stretches 5,609 meters from the yellow tees, opened in 2005 and has hosted numerous major national and international golf tournaments. The resort also lists footgolf among its activities and describes the property, which dates to 1845 and was once part of Bosjökloster Slott, as a year-round destination with a spa, hotel, restaurant, conference facilities, golf and padel. With tournament golf pedigree already established, including Elisefarm Open and a reported course record of 67, the site gave FootGolf a platform that matched the championship’s growing visibility.
