The Jason Floyd Golf Academy proudly congratulates its talented student, Tiger Christensen, on his incredible achievement of qualifying for The 151st Open Championship. At just 19 years old, this promising amateur golfer from Hamburg has already showcased remarkable skill and determination in securing his debut at golf’s oldest major. As Tiger prepares to grace the Royal Liverpool fairways, Jason Floyd himself will be by his side, supporting and guiding him throughout this exciting opportunity.
Despite sharing the name “Tiger” with the legendary Tiger Woods, Christensen is determined to forge his path and make a name for himself in the golfing world. Recognising the significance of his namesake’s contributions to the sport, he remains focused on his journey, driven by his passion for golf and a desire to create his own legacy.
Tiger’s Remarkable Journey
Hailing from Hamburg, a city renowned for producing European Cup winners, Tiger Christensen initially split his time between football and golf during his childhood. However, his heart was set on golf from the age of 10, and since then, he has rapidly ascended through the ranks of amateur golf. Through the Triple A golf and education programme at the Jason Floyd Golf Academy, where Tiger received expert instruction from the team, Tiger secured a DI scholarship to Oklahoma State before transferring to Arizona University. With four trophies already to his name on the amateur circuit, Tiger’s determination and hard work have not gone unnoticed.
Qualifying Triumph
In an impressive display of skill, Tiger emerged triumphant from the star-studded Final Qualifying field at West Lancashire, besting renowned players like Sergio Garcia and Graeme McDowell. His rounds of 68 and 67 secured his coveted spot at The Open Championship, setting the stage for what promises to be a memorable performance.
Focused and Level-Headed
Approaching this prestigious tournament with humility and an open mind, Tiger is not burdened by the weight of expectations. Instead, he intends to enjoy the experience, embracing the opportunity to play in front of the largest crowds of his young career. Drawing from his past experiences, including a DP World Tour event, he remains level-headed and focused on making the most of each moment on the course.
Guided by the Jason Floyd Golf Academy

The Academy’s bespoke approach to instruction has been instrumental in honing Tiger’s skills and enhancing his understanding of the game.
