Adam Svensson

Adam Svensson (born December 31, 1993) is a Canadian professional golfer. Svensson left his mark in collegiate golf at NCAA Division II Barry University in Florida, winning nine times, earning two NCAA First-Team All-American honours, and winning the NCAA Division II Men's Golf Team Championships in 2013 and 2014. He won the Phil Mickelson Award as Most Outstanding Freshman in 2013 and was named the Jack Nicklaus Player of the Year in 2013/14. Svensson was the third-ranked amateur in Canada prior to his pro announcement. In 2015 Svensson left college after his junior year to turn professional and play on the Canadian Tour, where he was runner-up twice, including losing a playoff to Drew Weaver at the PC Financial Open. He medaled at the Web.com Tour qualifying school in December 2015, giving him fully-exempt status for the 2016 season. In August 2021, Svensson won the Nationwide Children's Hospital Championship as part of the Korn Ferry Tour Finals. While he had already secured a PGA Tour card for next season, the win improved Svensson's priority status for the PGA Tour in the 2021–22 season.
