This week the European Tour has left the Wentworth Club and headed to the stunning Bro Hof Slott Golf Club in Sweden. Surrounded by the glittering waters of the Mälaren Lake is the Stadium Course which is among the finest golf courses on the in the world. This Swedish masterpiece is ranked No.1 in Sweden, No.8 in Europe and No.54 in the World, hence why it has retained the privilege of hosting the Nordea Masters for the past four years and looks to continue to do so until at least 2018!

Bro Hof Slott Golf Club is located just 25 miles Northwest of the nation’s capital, Stockholm – making it easily accessible from the city’s international airport and a “must consider” for the next time you’re deciding on the destination for your next golf break.

As I’m sure a lot of you will be enjoying watching the Nordea Masters unfold on the Stadium Course over the next few days, I thought it would be worthwhile putting together a compilation of some of the best pictures of this wonderfully unique golf course.

Originally from the Home of Golf, I have been lucky enough to hack my way round some of the finest courses Scotland has to offer. Previous employers include the world famous Gleneagles Hotel - where I once recommended a half pint of local lager to Gary Player.
