Lindberg was born and grew up in Bollnäs in the province of Hälsingland, Gävleborg County, Sweden. As a youth in Sweden, she was an alpineski racer.[3] She started playing golf at the age of four introduced by her father Jan, one of the leading players in the local golf club, Bollnäs Golf Club, in the 1970s.[4]
2002–2004, Lindberg won seven national youth tournaments in Sweden.[5] In 2003, she topped the Swedish Junior Tour Order of Merit, and was awarded the Annika Sörenstam Trophy.[6]
Lindberg was also part of the team representing Sweden at the 2008 Espirito Santo Trophy in Adelaide, Australia together with Caroline Hedwall and Anna Nordqvist. Sweden won the team tournament for their second title and the first wire-to-wire win seen in the championship in 18 years, beating team Spain by 12 strokes. Lindberg finished 18th individually, despite none of her four rounds counted towards the team score. After Sweden took a 10-stroke-lead after the first round, Lindberg joked that they could sell her non-counting 1-under-par-score to another team for an expensive price.[9]
Lindberg tied for 5th at the 2015 U.S. Women's Open, her best major championship finish so far.
Her first professional win came at a major championship, the 2018ANA Inspiration held March 29 – April 2 at Mission Hills Country Club in Rancho Mirage, California . She prevailed in a sudden-death playoff, which extended to eight holes, over Inbee Park and Jennifer Song. Despite holding a three-shot lead after 54 holes, Lindberg shot 71 in the final round. In the final pairing, she birdied the 72nd hole to finish at 273 (−15), tied with Park and Song. In the playoff, Song was eliminated on the third extra hole when Park and Lindberg both birdied. After another try, the remaining two parred the hole and play was suspended due to darkness.[12] On Monday morning, the playoff resumed on the 10th hole, then went to 17 and back to 18. Still tied after seven extra holes, the players returned to #10, where Lindberg sank a thirty-foot (9m) birdie putt, while Park missed hers from twenty feet (6m).[1] The victory boosted Lindberg′s world ranking61 places, from 95 to 34, and a few weeks later she reached a career-best 29.[1]
In October 2025, Lindberg announced her retirement from the LPGA Tour at age 39, after 340 starts and $3.4 million in prize money.[13]
Personal life
On 31 January 2019, Lindberg married Daniel Taylor, who had been her caddie for several seasons.[14]
