The Swedish International Stroke Play Championship or Swedish International (SI) is a golf tournament played in Sweden since 1945. It has been featured on the Swedish Golf Tour and the Challenge Tour.

Formally named the Swedish Golf Federation 72-hole Stroke Play Championship at inception, it was known locally as the Svenskt Internationellt Slagtävlingsmästerskap (SISM) until it officially assumed the name Swedish International in 1984. Professionals and amateurs competed separately from 1945 to 1958, before being amateur only from 1959 to 1983. It became open to any golfer from 1984 with the introduction of the Swedish Golf Tour. Officially a Swedish National Championship between 1982 and 2007, a separate National Champion was named in the event of a foreign winner.

The tournament was discontinued after the 2007 season, but resurrected again in 2026 as the Swedish International Men's Amateur Championship, part of the EGA's European Amateur Order of Merit, a series of 16 premier events across Europe.
