“As we build on the momentum from the Paris 2024 Summer Olympics, we are grateful for Annika’s leadership and are thrilled to have her continue in her role as president of the IGF,” said IGF Executive Director Antony Scanlon. “Annika is a key figure in our sport, and with her experience, knowledge and passion, we are committed to the ongoing growth and development of golf into the future.”
Sörenstam, whose tenure as IGF president began on 1 January 2021, was re-elected for her third term, which will run from 1 January 2025 through 31 December 2026.
