Field in focus: Made in HimmerLand presented by FREJA (European Tour)

HimmerLand near Farsø, Denmark, is the next stop for the European Tour. This will be the seventh edition of the tournament who was previously known as Made in Denmark.

Who are the favorites?

Bernd Wiesberger is not in his best form and will have a tough task to defend his title from 2019 (in 2020 the tournament was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic) against a strong field. The Austrian, who spent the last couple of months on the PGA Tour returns to the European Tour where he has captured seven titles. His last top 10 finish on tour was at the end of January at the Omega Dubai Desert Classic where he tied for sixth.

Robert MacIntyre, 46th in the world, is the highest ranked player in the field this week at HimmerLand. The young Scot arrived in Denmark after he shared 49th place at the PGA Championship. In his last five starts MacIntyre posted three top 15 finishes, including tied for 12th at The Masters in Augusta. In 2019 the Scot finished second, just a shot behind the winner Wiesberger.

Last week at the PGA Championship Andy Sullivan missed the cut, which was his first missed cut in eleven starts. The Englishman posted some decent results, including a shared sixth place at the Betfred British Masters hosted by Danny Willett two weeks ago.

Form-horse

Calum Hill climbed to 138th in the world thanks to his solid play this season. In his last eight starts the Scot has posted five top 12 finishes. His last tournament on the European Tour was the Betfred British Masters hosted by Danny Willett where he finished tied for eight.

Wildcard

Soren Kjeldsen

Soren Kjeldsen's latest results are far from impressive. The experienced Dane hasn't posted a top 10 finish since the 2019 Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship, but he will the home crowd support. HimmerLand is not a long golf course and it suits Kjeldsen's game. The four-time European Tour winner has good memories from the tournament where he finished tied-2nd in 2015 and tied-8th in 2016. We already saw a winning veteran last week at the Kiawah Island, why not one more this week.
