PGA Future Fund
Swedish golfers that qualify for a top tier tour (or its development tour) for the first time are eligible to receive an award from the PGA Future Fund, up to a maximum of SEK 100,000. Former awardees, including Carl Pettersson, Caroline Hedwall, Henrik Stenson and Alexander Norén have generously contributed to the fund following their success on tour.

The fund was founded in 1998 and by 2018 121 PGA members had been awarded SEK 60,000 – 100,000 each for a combined total of SEK 7,555,000, rising to 8,030,000 in 2019 and by 540,000 to 8,570,000 in 2020.

Policy change: Due to increased competition on the world's tours players can now receive awards more than once, up to a total of three times.

Caroline Hedwall won the 2011 Power Golf at Celtic Manor. The tournament stipulated half the price money be given to charity and Hedwall donated SEK 600,000 to be awarded promising young female golfers. These awards were distributed 2012–2015 and are denoted H below.
