France’s Maxime Legros claims a second win at the Miglianico Alps Open

Italy, May 2nd, 2026 – France’s Maxime Legros claimed his second Alps Tour title in less than two weeks, following up his win at the Dreamland Open with another impressive performance at the Miglianico Alps Open.

After nearly 30 events to secure his maiden victory, Legros needed only a matter of days to double his tally. Starting the final round one shot behind the lead, the Frenchman delivered a strong 66 (-4) at Il Cerreto di Miglianico Golf.

Two decisive stretches of three consecutive birdies, from holes 7 to 9 and again from 13 to 15, proved to be the difference. He becomes the second multiple winner of the season after Italy’s Andrea Romano, who won twice earlier this year in Egypt.

Overnight leader Alessandro Nodari had to settle for a final-round 69 (-1), affected by a double bogey and two bogeys. The Italian shares second place with Austria’s Christoph Bleier and France’s Ewan Le Tennier.

Full Leaderboard

With this victory, Legros earns €7,200 and 6,525 Order of Merit points and moves to the top of the standings, just ahead of Italy’s Andrea Romano. Ireland’s Robert Moran and Spain’s Mario Galiano Aguilar and Pablo Alperi Lopez complete the top five.

The players will return to action on Thursday, May 14th in Austria for the Gosser Open.

Round 3 Player Quotes

Maxime Legros: “It was completely different from my win at Dreamland, where I had a big lead all day. This time, I was behind until the middle of the round — I was even four shots back after six holes. But I stuck to my game plan. With a two-shot lead towards the end, I managed to stay composed and bring the title home.

Now the goal is to be in the top 6 after the Biarritz Cup to avoid PQ1, and then finish in the top 5 overall. With two wins, of course you want to go for a third one, but we know how quickly things can change in golf. You have to take advantage when you’re playing well, and I’m happy I’m doing that right now. A big thank you to my coaches, my sponsors, my family and my girlfriend.

Ewan Le Tennier: “What was missing this week was definitely my chipping. I gave myself plenty of chances to make birdies — I made eight today — so there was room to go lower. But my chipping wasn’t sharp enough, and every small mistake ended up costing me a bogey, which made it difficult to post a really low score.

That said, I’m very happy with my start to the season. It’s another podium finish after Dreamland, and I played a very good final round today — bogey-free with four birdies. I’ve made eight cuts in eight events, so for my first season, I’m really pleased with how things are going.

Christoph Bleier: “It’s been a bit tough over the last two days. I wasn’t really hitting it well and had to scramble a lot. The wind made it pretty tricky to score low, so it was really impressive to see Max finish the way he did, especially with those birdies on 13, 14 and 15. Unfortunately, I couldn’t keep up with him this week because, as I said, I wasn’t striking it great.

Overall, I’m really happy with three top-three finishes. I’m playing good golf at the moment and looking forward to keeping that going, hopefully giving myself a chance later in the season to move up to the HotelPlanner Tour. For now, I’ll take it one tournament at a time. I’m heading to play on the HotelPlanner Tour next week in Italy at Golf Nazionale, then I’ll be back for the Gösser Open.
