Contents

Ryström grew up in Köping. He started playing golf at age six and was a scratch golfer by age fifteen. He turned professional in 1986 and won three times on the Challenge Tour. He had six top-10 finishes on the Challenge Tour in 2000 including victory in the Costa Blanca Challenge after beating Henrik Stenson in a playoff.

Ryström twice graduated from the Challenge Tour but never won a European Tour title, finishing runner-up three times. He tied for second in the 1992 Monte Carlo Open together with Mark McNulty, two strokes behind Ian Woosnam. Later the same year he tied for second at the Open de Catalonia, one stroke behind José Rivero. In the 1993 Honda Open he lost in a playoff to Sam Torrance.

Ryström earned a medical exemption for the 2003 season after suffering an elbow injury in 2002, but that were to be his last season. His European Tour official prize money 1988–2003 totaled €886,715.
