Bio

Proposed to his fiancee, Jazmine, on May 1, 2020; he sent her on a scavenger hunt which sent her to Ragged Point, a headland on California's Central Coast, where he had a tent set up on the beach and proposed to her.
Grew up playing A6 Golf Club in Sweden and says today, "Nothing beats a summer evening round at A6."
Played hockey for about 10 years, eventually giving it up around the time he started high school to focus on golf; he still dreams of playing in the NHL in front of a full crowd at Madison Square Garden.
Favorite teams include HV71, the hockey team he grew up playing for in Sweden, and the New York Rangers (NHL); his favorite athlete is Hockey Hall of Fame inductee and fellow Swede Nicklas Lidstrom, widely regarded as one of the greatest defenseman in NHL history, because Widing idolized him and his playing style as a young hockey player.
Fascinated by astronomy.
A music aficionado who enjoys just about every era of music, especially the 80s.
Three words he uses to describe himself are stubborn, persistent, and calm.
According to his LinkedIn profile, spent roughly two years (2015-17) as an assistant supply coordinator for Husqvarna Group; the job duties entailed appraising merchandise for shipment and sale to subsidiaries, as well as organizing product supplies and managing the storage of diamond construction tools and products.
Favorite foods include Swedish kebab pizza, yellow curry, and Swedish meatballs with mashed potatoes.
Younger brother, Charlie, plays competitive table tennis; he represented Sweden and played in the nation's top league.
