The 2022 Volvo Car Scandinavian Mixed moves to a new home this season as Halmstad Golf Club plays host to the innovative event. Tournament hosts Henrik Stenson and Annika Sorenstam tee it up alongside defending champion Jonathan Caldwell and in-form Ladies European Tour stars Maja Stark and Linn Grant, but will it be a man or a woman lifting the trophy on Sunday? Home favourite Alex Noren is the highest-ranked male player in the field this week as he goes in search of DP World Tour win number 11. Four of those victories came in as many months in 2016 and since then he has claimed two Rolex Series wins at the 2017 BMW PGA Championship and 2018 Open de France. Swede Maja Stark only turned professional last season but to say her introduction to the paid ranks has been successful would be a dramatic understatement. A two-time winner on the LET last season, she added a third title at this year’s Women’s NSW Open and sits top of the Race to Costa del Sol, with five other top tens from her seven starts. It’s all to play for in Sweden!

    Congratulations Linn – a fantastic finish and very well deserved.

    It’s not historic because she played from different tees. If she won by playing from the same tees, that would truly be historic and remarkable.

    Hang on. Was she teeing off from nearer the hole? Did I see a women’s tee? Surely pro women don’t want to go up against men from different tees!?!

    There’s an awful lot of insecure men in the comments already, it’s really quite pathetic. Playing from the front tees levels the playing field in terms of driving distance, that’s all. It doesn’t make your putts straighter or your ball striking easier. And the difference in driving distance is entirely genetic: men have bigger, denser skeletal muscles. Thats a fact and there’s nothing she can do to change that. She still demonstrated amazing iron play, ball striking and the the best short game and putting of anyone in the field. She won it by a long way with the most level playing field a woman can hope for in a mixed tournament. Well done.

    First of all congratulations to Linn Grant for a historic win..she was simply brilliant!!..Now lets talk about balancing the scales evenly..it's very complex and most likely wont be consistent everytime as all the golf courses are not just straight lines..If you reduce the playing distance you will not be reducing the playing difficulty evenly on every hole let alone every course..some tee shots are much harder than the approach shots on certain holes and some fairways get narrower at certain yardage etc!!
    Now there will be tournaments or golf courses where even after reducing the distance Women golfers would not be able to catch up..so all in all it's a big headache for the organisers to balance it evenly..This was a novel idea as golf is evolving in all spheres but still a long way to go for working out a level playing field..just my opinion!!
