When you travel and play golf, do you decide the country or the golf course in the first place?

- If there is a golf trip, it is of course the golf course I want to play that decide which country I travel to.

Which course is your favorite in the world?
- I think the real golf is to be played in the British Isles and I love to play links courses. The weather is often bad, but that does not matter, it is raining and blowing there. Golf show at its best in the British Isles, where golf is a national sport with its tradition and culture. My obvious choice of a favorite course is then of course King children in Scotland.

Which course is your favorite in Sweden?

- It is so fun that it appeared very fine and new courses apart from the traditional in Sweden such as Hills, BroHof, Sand and Vasatorp TC. But my favorite in Sweden, this year newly opened PGA of Sweden National. Same architect who designed King children and I had the pleasure of meeting him a couple of weeks ago, an exciting meeting and we had a lot to talk about.

Do you book your travel yourself via the Internet or via a travel agent?

- I book my trips through a travel agent and this is due mostly to my lack of time.

What do you like best with golfworldwide.com?

- You can look up everything you need to know to plan a great golf trip. I like to be updated and therefore of course I signed in as a member of Golf World Wide.

What are your tips for a successful golf trip in Sweden?
- My tip is to follow the SAS Masters Tour, which has 13 competitions for woman and 15 for men around Sweden and in Scandinavia. First to see the race and the talented players who are there, but also the opportunity to play the track shortly after the contest. The courses are prepared for the race to the absolute top quality with the help of the course set-up we will allocate for the golf clubs that organizes tour races. Competition program and competitions were played here: www.sasmasterstour.com

What does it mean for Sweden to have their own professional tour in the SAS Masters Tour?
- Many people marvel at how a small country like Sweden can produce so many talented players - junior activities at golf clubs with talented leaders and coaches who encourage children and young people. But we in Sweden can also have its own professional tour as SAS Masters Tour for men and women is very important for the elite developments in the Gulf. Players can play good games with prizes at home in order to develop themselves and make themselves ready for the future. SAS Masters Tour is also a springboard into Europe by the men's tour is part of the Nordic League and the women's tour is a " Feeder Tour to the European Tour for the ladies.
