Jesper Svensson became a winner on the DP World Tour for the first time at the Porsche Singapore Classic last month, continuing his remarkable rise up the golfing ranks which began on the Challenge Tour in 2023.
The Swede’s triumph came just over ten months after he secured a first Challenge Tour win at last year’s B-NL Challenge Trophy in the Netherlands – his first start of the 2023 season.
The 28-year-old would go on to record five more top 10 finishes on the Road to Mallorca, before finishing fifth in the season-long Rankings and earn promotion to golf’s Global Tour.
Svensson has made an outstanding start to life on the DP World Tour, returning impressive second place finishes at the South African Open in December and February’s Bahrain Championship, before recording top 20 finishes at the Qatar Masters and Kenya Open in the same month.
Svensson’s playoff victory in Singapore last month came in just his 14th DP World Tour start, and sees him sit just outside the top 100 in the Official World Golf Rankings, up from 705th prior to winning on the Challenge Tour last year.
The Swede climbs to third in the Race to Dubai Rankings after the first two events of the Asian Swing, and will be looking to continue his strong form when he tees it up in Japan and China before he returns to familiar surroundings for the European Swing in May.
