Dolk made his senior debut for Hammarby in 2007, making his first appearance in the semifinals against Redbergslids IK. The club went on to win the 2006–07 Swedish Handball League, beating Skövde HF in the final.[5] The following season, in 2007–08, Hammarby defended their Swedish champion title, defeating IK Sävehof in the final.[6][7]
In 2012–13, Dolk was the top scorer in the Swedish Handball League, scoring 214 goals throughout the season, also winning a spot in the league's All-Star Team.[8][9][10] After the season, he signed a new one-year contract with the club.[11] In 2013–14, he scored 2014 goals, the second most in the whole league behind Zoran Roganović, and was inducted in the All Star-team for a second consecutive year.[12][13] Between 2013 and 2014, Dolk also won 10 caps for the Sweden national team, scoring 23 goals.[3]
