Adam Mednick (born 9 September 1966) is a Swedish professional golfer.

Mednick was born in Bethesda, Maryland in the United States to an American father and a Swedish mother, and moved to Sweden when he was eight years old. His great-grandparents emigrated from Russia to escape the Tsar, and the authorities in the United States changed their family name from Mednikov to Mednick.

Mednick had a successful amateur career before turning professional in 1989. He played on the European Tour and the second tier Challenge Tour between 1990 and 2006 but his career was restricted by a back injury sustained in 1995. He won just one tournament at the top level, the North West of Ireland Open in 2002.[1][2]
