Alexander Bjork picked up career win No. 1 this year after a solid rookie campaign in 2017.

The Swede won the Volvo China Open back in April. It was one of now four top-10 finishes this year. He also has five more top-30 finishes.

The 28-year-old from Jonkoping is first in strokes gained approaching the green this season on the European Tour and 13th tee to green. His weakness is with the driver, but wide and wet fairways may help that cause.

Otherwise, Bjork is sharp around the greens (32nd) and is 20th in putts per round.

He’s one of the few coming east from the PGA Championship, but a good test at Bellerive should be good prep for Bjork.
