Jeppe Huldahl

Residence: Copenhagen, Denmark

DOB: 02/07/1982

Jeppe started playing at the age of six when his Dad first introduced him to the game at his home club at Holsterbro. He was a Danish International at amateur level and still receives tuition from Denmark’s National Coach, Magnus Landstrom, and his assistant, Jan Frej. Arrived at The 2003 European Tour Qualifying School Finals as an amateur but joined the professional ranks on the eve of the tournament. His first professional event could not have gone better as he earned the fourth card at the Qualifying School to take his place on The 2004 European Tour International Schedule. The following season did not go as well and Jeppe subsequently lost his card after a testing debut season. However a successful 2005 Challenge Tour season when he won his maiden professional title the Lexus Open in Norway, and finished runner-up at The Dutch Futures Presented by The Royal Bank of Scotland saw him win back his European Tour card. Jeppe secured his first win on The European Tour with a stunning victory at The 2009 Celtic Manor Wales Open. A rank outsider at the start of the week but proved he had the ability to win at the highest level by producing an outstanding final round 68 in testing conditions to win by a stroke from Niclas Fasth over The Twenty Ten Course, the venue for The 2010 Ryder Cup. Jeppe has only managed one further top-20 this season.
