History and profile

[edit]

Svensk Golf was launched in 1946.[1][2] The Swedish Golf Association acquired the magazine in 1964.[1] The Association sold the magazine to Egmont Group in 2015, and the publisher has been Egmont Publishing.[1] From 1965 to 1 June 2020 it was sent out to all members of Swedish Golf Association.[1] Then the magazine became a paid magazine.[1]

Svensk Golf is published ten times a year and covers the equipment tests, international golf destinations and the reports from Swedish golf courses.[3][4] It also features interviews with leading golfers.[3]

At the beginning of the 1960s the editor-in-chief of Svensk Golf was Göran Zachrisson.[5] As of 2021 Oskar Åsgård is the editor-in-chief of the magazine.
