Katrineholms Golfklubb

Katrineholms Golfklubb sits in the town of Katrineholm in Södermanland County, roughly 120 kilometers southwest of Stockholm in south-central Sweden. The course was designed by Robert Karlsson, a Swedish professional golfer who has competed extensively on the European Tour and represented Europe in multiple Ryder Cup matches. Karlsson has undertaken course design work in Sweden alongside his playing career, bringing a player's perspective to routing and strategic considerations. The layout occupies terrain characteristic of the Swedish lowlands, where gentle rolling topography and mixed woodland define the playing corridors. Courses in this region of Södermanland typically feature fairways carved through pine and deciduous forest, with natural elevation changes that remain modest but sufficient to create variety in stance and approach angles. Water features and natural ground contours shape hole strategy, and the growing season allows for firm conditions during summer months. Katrineholm itself serves as a regional center between Stockholm and the southern cities, and the club functions as a community amenity for local golfers. Swedish golf clubs generally maintain accessible membership models and emphasize year-round activity within the constraints of the Nordic climate, with play concentrated from late spring through early autumn. The course provides a venue for regional competition and recreational play within Södermanland's network of golf facilities.
