Scheffler Given 57.5% Chance Of Being Next Career Grand Slam Winner

Midnight Sun Northern Lights and Cliffside Fairways

Norway might not be on most golfers' bucket lists… yet. But that’s about to change. Far from your typical fairway, golf in Norway is an immersive, almost cinematic experience where each swing is framed by fjords, forests, or the Arctic Ocean. Here, the game trades prestige for perspective, offering solitude, stunning landscapes, and a true sense of connection with the natural world.

Located above the Arctic Circle, Lofoten Links has become a symbol of Norway’s quiet rise on the global golf map. Recently acquired by Cabot, the course was carved along the cliffs and white-sand beaches of the Lofoten Islands with one guiding principle: don’t fight nature—play with it. Players can tee off at midnight during the summer’s endless daylight or chase the Northern Lights across the fairway in early autumn.

Russell, Colton Win Pair of Matches, Set Up Heavyweight Final-8 Matchup
