Biography
Not all lads from Oslo, Norway, dream of going to America to play golf. But this one did. Born on September 18, 1997, in the Norwegian capital, he began playing golf when he was eleven years old. His father, who had been working in the States, was the one who introduced him to the sport. Practising at an indoor range, he noticed that there was something serene about this game. He was hooked and wanted to do this for a living. Upon finishing high school, the Norwegian decided to move to Oklahoma to attend the Oklahoma State University.
