Saddier celebrates first World Tour title in Italy
Adrien Saddier has claimed a maiden DP World Tour title with a two-shot win in the Italian Open at the Argentario Golf Club. Making his 200th appearance on the Tour, the 33-year-old Frenchman lost ground on the front nine after following up a birdie at the second with bogeys at the fourth and eighth. But he found his stride on the back nine, where a run of four birdies in five holes from the 10th saw him climb to the top of the leaderboard. He then made another gain on the 16th to open up a three-shot advantage and parred the last two holes to card a four-under 66 and mark his landmark appearance in the best possible way. He finished on 266, 14 under par and two shots ahead of compatriot Martin Couvra, who had taken a one-shot lead in the closing round. Couvra had four birdies along with three bogeys on Sunday en route to a final-round 69. Scotland's Calum Hill and England's Dan Bradbury shared third on 10 under par, while France's Clement Sordet and Germany's Nicolai von Dellingshausen finished joint fifth a further shot back. Among the Australian contingent, Daniel Gale carded a final-round 68 to finish 11 shots behind the leader. Danny List's early promise continued to fade and he finished on 281, with David Micheluzzi on 284.
