Nordberg was introduced to golf at an early age by his father, Björn Nordberg, an elite golfer who captained the winning Swedish European Boys' Team Championship teams in 1983 and 1991, and later served as European Golf Association President, Swedish Golf Federation President, and European Tour Board Non-Executive Director.

Nordberg grew up in Boden. In 1982, the family moved to Täby where Nordberg attended the Danderyd Golfgymnasium. He had a successful youth career and won the Swedish Junior Championship in 1985 (U-19), 1986 and 1987, and was runner-up at the 1987 British Youths Open Championship following a playoff.
