Achievements and awards
Swedish Golf Tour Order of Merit2016

Haglund turned professional in 2016 and earned promotion to the 2017 Ladies European Tour by finishing second in the 2016 LET Access Series Order of Merit rankings. She won the 2016 Swedish Golf Tour Order of Merit.

In 2018, she joined the Symetra Tour, where she found herself in the lead heading into the final round of her first tournament, the IOA Championship.[1]

In February 2018, Haglund won a new Hyundai Genesis G80 after a hole-in-one during the third round of the ISPS Handa Women's Australian Open in Adelaide.[2] In April, she claimed her first Ladies European Tour title at the 2018 Lalla Meryem Cup in Rabat, Morocco, following a playoff. Having shared a three-way tie for the 72-hole lead with overnight co-leader Sarah Kemp and the 2017 event champion Klára Spilková on three-under-par 285, Haglund took the spoils after blasting a 249-meter drive down the 18th fairway and converting a four-foot putt for birdie.[3] Following the victory, Haglund rose from 276 to 204 in the Women's World Golf Rankings and topped the 2018 Ladies European Tours Order of Merit, five tournaments into the season.

Haglund received one of the two sponsor invites for the 2018 Women's PGA Championship, but did not make the cut. She finished 12th on the 2018 Symetra Tour official money list, narrowly (by $2,027) missing out on the promotion to the LPGA Tour awarded the top ten.[4] Instead, she spent the 2019 season on the LET, finishing top-10 at the Fatima Bint Mubarak Ladies Open, Australian Ladies Classic and the Lalla Meryem Cup, ending the season 41st on the Order of Merit.[5]
