Rasmus Højgaard, 2021 champion, returns for a sixth appearance at the OMEGA European Masters

Winner in 2021 and runner-up last year, Rasmus Højgaard returns to the fairways of the Crans-sur-Sierre Golf Club with a clear goal: to add another victory to his record at the 2026 edition of the OMEGA European Masters, taking place from 3 to 6 September.

At 25, Højgaard belongs to a generation of European golfers who already boast an impressive record. Since his triumph in 2021, he has continued to confirm his special affection for Crans-Montana, showing up year after year among the most serious contenders.

His story with the tournament has something almost novelistic about it. Højgaard first discovered these fairways in 2021 and left straight away with the trophy in hand, at just 20 years of age. A victory that was then only the third of his young career on the DP World Tour, but one that was already enough to reveal the full extent of his talent.

Since then, the Dane's record has only grown: he now counts five victories on the DP World Tour. The very first, achieved in only his fifth start on the circuit at the Mauritius Open, made him the fastest Danish player in history to win on the DP World Tour.
