Amateur Highlights

Won back-to-back college tournaments in 2018, capturing the Chatham Hills Collegiate in co-champion fashion with Austin Crowder. Two weeks later, recorded a final-round 69 at the UNCG Grandover Collegiate in Greensboro, North Carolina, to outlast Nicholas Lyerly by two strokes.
Played on teams that won three international tournaments—the 2017 Jacques Léglise Trophy, the 2019 European Amateur Team Championship and the 2019 Arnold Palmer Cup. His Swedish teammates-- Ludvig Åberg, Albin Bergström, Vincent Norrman, Pontus Nyholm and Christoffer Pålsson—defeated England, 4 1/2 to 2 1/2 in the finals of the European Amateur Team Champions. He went 1-3-0 in his four Arnold Palmer Cup matches, and his Continental Europe team prevailed over the Great Britain and Ireland squad.
In 2018, made history by becoming the first male to win both of Sweden’s top junior tournaments in the same season, the Junior Matchplay Championship and the Junior Strokeplay Championship. Jonas Blixt previously won both tournaments but in different years.
Was named Big Ten Conference Freshman of the Year, posting the lowest scoring average for a first-year player in Northwestern University history.
