Henric Sturehed

Henric Sturehed (born 9 October 1990) is a Swedish professional golfer who has played on the European Tour.

Early life Sturehed was born in Linköping, where his father was general manager of Landeryd Golf Club. He played ice hockey for Linköping HC until an injury ended his career, and he instead became a professional golfer at age 21.

Professional career Sturehed turned professional in 2011 and joined the Nordic Golf League, where he won his first title in 2014.

MENA Tour Sturehed had his breakthrough competing on the 2017 MENA Golf Tour, where he won the season-ending MENA Tour Championship by a convincing nine strokes, setting a course record of 63 in the process. Sturehed became the fourth Swede after Per Barth, Christofer Blomstrand and Fredrik From to win a MENA Tour event. He finished the season 2nd on the MENA Tour Order of Merit which earned him cards on the Sunshine Tour and the Asian Development Tour, along with starts at the Omega Dubai Desert Classic and KLM Open on the European Tour.

He has continued to make the occasional MENA Tour start and was runner-up at the 2019 Journey to Jordan Tour Championship, and tied 3rd at the 2020 Royal Golf Club Bahrain Open.

European Tour In November 2017, Sturehed became one of 33 players to earn European Tour cards through Q School, and he made his debut at the AfrAsia Bank Mauritius Open a few weeks later. In his rookie season, Sturehed finished tied 5th at Open de España in April, five strokes behind winner Jon Rahm. In July at Open de France, a 48 OWGR point Rolex Series event with the season's strongest field in continental Europe, he finished tied 12th and four strokes behind victorious compatriot Alex Norén. He ended the season 151st on the Order of Merit, and was relegated to the Challenge Tour.

Challenge Tour In 2019, Sturehed recorded top-10 finishes at the Challenge de España, Irish Challenge and at the Open de Portugal, where he was co-leader ahead of the last round after a seven-under-par 65 third round and finished in a tie for 5th.

In the reduced 2020 season his best finish was a tie for 5th at Challenge de España. Since 2021, he has been plagued by a back injury, and had to sit out the 2025 season almost entirely to undergo several surgeries.
