Top Innova Storylines from the 2026 Swedish Open
No Post-Major Hangover
Just one week after completing the Career Grand Slam, Eveliina Salonen nearly added another title to her stellar season. Calvin Heimburg also finished runner-up at the 2026 Swedish Open, while Rebecca Don continued her strong run with another Top 10 finish.
Eveliina Salonen – 2nd
There was no post-Major slowdown for Eveliina Salonen. One week after winning the European Open, she stormed back with a career-best 1041-rated, 10-under final round to erase a four-stroke deficit and force a playoff against Silva Saarinen. After four playoff holes, Saarinen finally pulled away with a birdie, leaving Eveliina with a hard-fought runner-up finish.
Eveliina was clutch down the stretch, converting every Circle 1 putt during the final round, including each of her playoff attempts. She averaged 1006-rated for the tournament, a performance that would have been enough to win most events.
Eveliina led the field in Circle 1 Hits in Regulation, Circle 2 Hits in Regulation, and Strokes Gained Tee to Green, continuing the elite tee-to-green play that has become her trademark. She also finished among the tournament’s best putters for the second straight week, converting 90% of her Circle 1 putts. Despite playing three fewer events than every player ahead of her, Eveliina now sits sixth in the DGPT standings.
