Halmstad Golf Club stages this unique tournament with words and form stats compiled by Andy Swales ...
It's back to Sweden for the second running of the innovative Scandinavian Mixed event.
The 2021 instalment was well received by everyone concerned, from spectators to broadcasters, as well as the players themselves.
The tournament broke new ground 12 months ago, when golfers from the men's and women's 'European' tours joined forces for the first time.
Once again the event will be jointly-hosted by Henrik Stenson and Annika Sorenstam, with this week's tournament taking place at Halmstad Golf Club in Tylosand.
The DP World Tour and Ladies European Tour (LET) will each supply 78 golfers who will compete over the traditional 72 holes of stroke play.
World Ranking points will be available, while the result will count towards the Race to Dubai standings, as well as its equivalent on the LET.
The 156 entries are competing for one prize fund and a single trophy.
Course Details
Halmstad Golf Club, which is located 90 miles south of last year's venue in Gothenburg, hosted the 2007 Solheim Cup.
It was also the venue for the LET's Chrysler Open in 1999 and 2000.
This week's tournament will take place over the North Course which dates back to before World War II.
Carved out of an area of dense woodland, just a few hundred yards from Sweden's south-west coast, the North Course is full of tree-lined fairways and gently undulating putting surfaces.
Although the fairways are generously-wide, with water in play on only three holes, Halmstad has plenty of subtle dog-legs ready to test a golfer's accuracy from the tee.
