Adam Mednick
Adam Mednick (born 9 September 1966) is a Swedish professional golfer.
Mednick was born in Bethesda, Maryland in the United States to an American father and a Swedish mother, and moved to Sweden when he was eight years old. His great-grandparents emigrated from Kiev in Ukraine, and the authorities in the United States changed their family name from Mednikov to Mednick.
Mednick had a successful amateur career, representing Gävle Golf Club, situated 180 kilometres north of Stockholm, Sweden, in the same player generation as club mates, European Tour winner to be, Peter Hedblom and 1988 Amateur Championship winner Cristian Härdin. When Härdin became the first Swede to play in The Masters Tournament at Augusta National Golf Club in April 1989, Mednick caddied for him. Mednick also caddied for Härdin at the 1988 Amateur Championship triumph, after Mednick had lost and been kicked out from the tournament in an early round.
Mednick lost in the final of the 1984 Boys Amateur Championship against Lee Vannet, Scotland, 2 and 1 at Royal Portcawl Golf Club, Wales.
Mednick represented Sweden at the 1984 European Boys' Team Championship at Royal St George's Golf Club, England, as one of the five best male players up to 18 years of age in Sweden, in the same team as future Ryder Cup-player Per-Ulrik Johansson.
In June 1986, Mednick won the Scottish Youth Championship at Cawder Golf Club, Glasgow, with a score of 282, nine strokes ahead of the nearest competitor.
In 1986, Mednick began at college in Jacksonville, Florida, to combine studies with golf training, but left school after the first year and moved back to Sweden.
Mednick was a candidate to be selected for the Swedish team at the 1988 Eisenhower Trophy on home soil in Stockholm, but did not make the team and turned professional before the 1989 season.
