Swedish pro Mikael Lindberg captured his first DP World Tour crown with a two‑stroke victory at the Turkish Airlines Open. A final‑round 69 left him at 10‑under 278, edging playing partner Daniel Rodrigues on a rain‑soaked National Golf Club in Belek, Antalya. The win secures his debut at the US PGA Championship in two weeks, marking a career milestone.

Rodrigues finished solo second, joined by Italy’s Guido Migliozzi on eight under, while Scotland’s Ewen Ferguson, the Netherlands’ Darius van Driel and Denmark’s Jacob Skov Olesen rounded out the top five. Lindberg admitted the week tested his nerves, describing the closing holes as mentally draining, yet he capitalised on a surprisingly calm front nine. He also praised his caddie for steady support.

The triumph lifts Lindberg to 45th in the Order of Merit and guarantees a spot among golf’s elite fields at Aronimink Golf Club. With a maiden title under his belt, he joins a select group of Swedes breaking through on the DP World Tour this season, reinforcing Sweden’s growing presence on the global stage. His earnings will boost his season total and improve his world ranking.
