Callaway has announced the signing of Swede, Alexander Björk, as the newest member of it’s Staff Professional team.
The 29-year-old from Växjö, joins fellow Nordic golfers Thomas Björn, Alex Noren, Tapio Pulkkanen and Henrik Stenson in representing the Callaway and Odyssey brands on the PGA and PGA European Tours throughout 2020.
The exciting Swede won his first PGA European Tour title in 2018 when he triumphed at the Volvo China Open in Beijing, at that time moving him into the Top 10 on the Race to Dubai rankings and to World No. 73. His highest ranking since has seen him rise to 59.
Alexander turned professional in 2009, qualifying for the PGA European Tour in 2016, after a strong season on the Challenge Tour where he finished 7th in the Order of Merit. He also has Major Championship experience, having played in The Open for the past three years and the last two US PGA Championships.
Alexander commented: “It’s fantastic to start 2020 with the full support and technical guidance of the Callaway and Odyssey teams. I have been hugely impressed with the products during testing over the winter, and I’m eagerly anticipating using them in tournaments across the European Tour calendar.”
