He missed his European Tour card by one shot at the Challenge Tour Grand Final in 1999 and failed again at the qualifying school, but made an immediate impact by leading from start to finish to win the Challenge de España, the opening event of the 2000 Challenge Tour season.[1]

Carlberg played 14 events on the European Tour where his best performance was a tie for fourth at the 1999 Moroccan Open.[1]
