The Sydbank Esbjerg Challenge was a golf tournament on the Challenge Tour held at Esbjerg Golf Club, Esbjerg, Denmark.[1]
The inaugural tournament in 2021 was the second of the Challenge Tour's Danish Swing in August, following the Made in Esbjerg Challenge, both co-sanctioned by the Nordic Golf League.[2]
Norway's Espen Kofstad shot a final round of 67 to join Ewen Ferguson on −11 after the Scot shot a final round 69. Kofstad won the sudden death playoff as he birdied the first extra hole to claim his first win in five years.[3]
