Madelene Sagstrom Net Worth Wiki 2023 – Career Earnings, WITB, Caddie, Husband, House, Family

Madelene

Madelene Sagstrom can tell you that the truth set her free and golf saved her life.

Strong words, perhaps, yet not as powerful as the impact of her disclosure to her mentor Robert Karlsson had on her golf game.

During Madelene’s rookie appearance on the 2016 Symetra Tour–now known as the Epson Tour–she revealed to her mentor that she had been sexually abused as a seven-year-old in her native Sweden.

She’s described that moment as a weight being lifted off and it showed in her performance on the course.

In 2016, Madelene won three consecutive Symetra events and was named Rookie of the Year and Player of Year.

She joined the next season’s LPGA Tour feeling free and light.

Jack grew up in Rayleigh, Essex and got into golf when he was just six years old.

House

Madelene5

While Madelene is firmly based in Orlando, she has yet to become a homeowner.

Family

Madelene6

Madelene Sagstrom opened up about her painful childhood trauma, however, she is very protective of her family’s privacy.

Little is know besides her parent’s names–Per and Lena–and that her younger brother Jesper has caddied for her when she attended the 2018 UL International Crown.

Jesper is active on his personal Instagram account where you can see him following in his sister’s golfing footsteps.

Conclusion

Madelene7

Madelene Sagstrom shared her story publicly and found that speaking up also freed her game.

She became a better golfer and more professional athlete when she reminded herself and others that she is human first.

After opening up to Robert Karlsson, she learned to control her temper on course and not to beat herself up because of a less than stellar round.

Being a good golfer no longer meant she was a good person. In her own words, “I love Madelene the golfer, but I now love Madelene the person more.”

Golf saved her and provided Madelene with a support system equal to none–she will always turn to the game when she needs it the most.

And if she touches one life by telling her story, she believes it will all be worth it.
