Frederik Kjettrup (born 2 January 2000) is a Danish professional golfer. ^[1]

Amateur career

Kjettrup won several big amateur tournaments in Europe prior to moving to the United States to play college golf at Florida State University. While there, he won three tournaments and was a 3-tim All-American. He finished eighth in the 2024 PGA Tour University Rankings to earn conditional status on the PGA Tour Americas. ^[2]

Professional career

Kjettrup turned professional before the U.S. Open in June 2024, where he missed the cut by one stroke. Taking up membership of the PGA Tour Americas, he won the first two tournaments he played on the tour, the Beachlands Victoria Open and the ATB Classic. He also won the CRMC Championship later in the season to finish in second place in the end of season point standings and earn fully exempt status on the Korn Ferry Tour for the 2025 season. ^[3] In December 2024, he signed with LIV Golf for the 2025 season, joining Martin Kaymer's Cleeks GC team. ^[4] PGA Tour policy relating to LIV Golf meant he would be ineligible for the Korn Ferry Tour, so he resigned his membership and the exemption was extended to Stuart Macdonald, who had finished 11th in the standings. ^[5]
