About Iben

Denmark’s most accomplished female golfer, Tinning has long been considered one of Europe’s brightest talents. The 34-year-old originally rose to prominence by capturing the 1992 Danish National Championship as an 18-year-old amateur. A four-time member of the European Solheim Cup team, Tinning’s career-best season came in 2005, when she collected three titles and secured her first Order of Merit crown. So far, her 2008 season has featured 12 top-20 finishes, including fourth place at both the Nykredit Masters and SAS Ladies Masters.
