Round 1 Player Quotes

Switzerland’s Luca Galliano, 39, leads after the opening round of the 2025 Open International de La Mirabelle d’Or, with a 7 under-par, 63. Galliano got off to a hot start with a birdie on the 3^rd hole, an eagle on the 4^th, and another birdie on the 5^th. He added a fourth birdie on the 8^th hole before making the turn with a bogey on the 9^th. A birdie streak from holes 10 through 13 pushed him further up the leaderboard, and despite a dropped shot on the 14^th, he bounced back with a birdie on the 15^th before making a closing bogey on the 18^th to sign for his 63. Galliano, who won the season-opening 2025 Ein Bay Open and currently sits 11^th in the Order of Merit standings. “I played really well today. I had plenty of birdie chances and managed to convert a lot of them. I’m very happy with my putting and the way I handled my first round,” said Galliano. “Strategy is always important, but being accurate off the tee is even more crucial on this golf course. I’m really looking forward to testing myself again tomorrow. It’s always a great feeling to be in contention and I’m looking forward to the next two rounds.” Commenting on the conditions, he added: “The weather was quite pleasant early on this morning, but from the 8^th hole onwards, it got really hot. I think that’s something all of us will have to manage it as best we can as it will affect everyone.”

He shot a bogey-free 6 under-par, 64 with birdies on holes 3, 6, 8, 9,12, and 14. “I was happy with how I played this morning,” said Mullarney. “My warm-up wasn’t great, but I settled into the round with a few nice iron shots early on, which helped. Overall, my game is in good shape. It was more of a methodical round today, with no real highs or lows. I was able to take advantage of some of the easier holes and kept it in the short grass which is important here.” Reflecting on his comfort with the host venue, he added: “I played on the Alps Tour in 2023, and a few of the courses are the same, including this one, so that definitely helps. I also think this course really suits my eye.” As for the conditions: “It’s so warm! It helped playing in the morning, but I’ll get a taste of it tomorrow afternoon, it’ll be warm but it’ll be warm for all of us.”

The Gösser Open is one of the most important tournaments of the Alps Tour season and holds the distinction of being the oldest tournament on the Alps Tour schedule. It is also widely regarded as the most traditional professional golf tournament in Austria.

The event first began in 1993 at Steiermärkischer Golf Club Murhof, before moving to Golf Club Erzherzog Johann in 2000, where it has remained as the permanent host venue. Following the founding of the Alps Tour in 2001, the Gösser Open became part of the Tour schedule and has been a key event ever since.

The Field

Uniquely, the club was developed as part of a revitalization project on land previously used as a coal mine, blending rich history with environmental renewal.

The course is known for its picturesque landscape—rolling hills, tranquil lakes, and forested surroundings—creating a visually stunning backdrop. However, its strategic layout also presents a significant challenge, demanding accuracy and precision from players throughout the round.

8th May 2025 | Alps Tour Golf

Spain’s Asier Aguirre Izcue moves into the lead after Round 2 in Italy.

Como, May 8^th, 2025 – After two rounds of the 2025 Memorial Giorgio Bordoni presented by AON, Spain’s Asier Aguirre Izcue moves into the lead with a two-day total of 14 under-par. Hugh Foley from Ireland and Marco Florioli from Italy are in a 2-way tie for 2^nd place at 11 under-par.

The second round of the 11^th edition of the 2025 Memorial Giorgio Bordoni presented by AON, taking place at the prestigious Golf Club La Pinetina in Appiano Gentile, just outside Como. The day began with some sunshine, but conditions soon shifted to overcast skies accompanied by light winds that lingered throughout the rest of the round.

Since its inception in 2014, the event has been a mainstay on the Alps Tour calendar, it is named after and dedicated to the highly regarded golf instructor, Giorgio Bordoni who unexpectedly passed away in 2013 at the age of 48.

Round 2 Player Quotes

Asier Aguirre Izcue, 25, from Spain, leads the field at 14-under-par after two rounds at GC La Pinetina. He shot a sensational bogey-free second round of 9-under-par 61, with five birdies on the front nine (holes 1, 2, 4, 6, and 8) and four more on the back nine (holes 10, 12, 14, and 16). In the opening round, Aguirre carded a 5-under-par 65, despite a costly quadruple bogey on the par-5 3^rd hole—otherwise, he could have matched his second-round 61 on both days. Aguirre, has been playing well, “I tried to keep playing my own game for the whole day and was very solid with my iron shots.” He is consistent performer on the Alps Tour, having collected multiple top 10 finishes in recent seasons, including a T2 at GC La Pinetina in 2023. Aguirre is still in pursuit of his first Alps Tour victory and came agonizingly close in 2024 at the Gösser Open losing in a sudden-death playoff. With momentum on his side, he now has a strong opportunity to finally break through. Aguirre has “only hit 2 drivers on the front nine and maybe another 3 on the back nine. This course, you need to place the ball and keep it in play, and I found to have done that well so far. I stuck to my strategy and so far, it’s paying off. Once you’re in the fairways you can be aggressive with your approach shots and give yourself opportunities and today, I took advantage of that.” Aguirre feels, “very comfortable and I’m going to try my best tomorrow. My sponsor is here with me this week, and he is caddying for me. I’m very comfortable with him and it’s made the week enjoyable.”

Hugh Foley, 27, from Ireland is only 3 strokes off the lead with a two-day score of 11 under-par. He followed his opening round of 3 under-par, 67 with a fabulous 8 under-par, 62 that included 5 birdies on the front nine holes of the course, his back nine and 1 eagle, 2 birdies and 1 bogey on the back. Foley, “putted really well today. To shoot 62, you must roll it great on the greens, and that was the key for me. I also hit it straight off the tee, which gave me plenty of chances. On this course, you’ve got to keep it out of the trees and it’s not a long layout, so if you’re accurate, you’re hitting short irons in and giving yourself a lot of birdie looks.” This is Foley’s sixth professional event, “and this is the first time I’ve been in the final pairing, so I’m really excited about that. I just want to enjoy the experience, stick to the same game plan, and hopefully hole as many putts as I did today.”

Alongside Foley in a 2-way tie for 2^nd place with a total score of 11 under-par, Italy’s Marco Florioli, 20 years old. He shot a bogey-free 6 under-par, 64 with 3 birdies in each 9 holes.

Spain’s Javier Barcos, 23, currently ranked fourth in the Alps Tour Order of Merit and winner of the 2025 New Giza Open, moved into a 3-way tie for 4^th place after round two of the Memorial Giorgio Bordoni presented by AON. Barcos began the tournament with a 4-under-par 66 to sit tied for 9^th, but followed it up with a flawless, bogey-free 6-under-par 64 to climb the leaderboard. He started strong with back-to-back birdies on holes 1 and 2, and added four more on the back nine to post a two-day total of 10-under-par. Barcos felt “like when I played in the afternoon yesterday, the greens were much bumpier, due to the number of players and that’s normal, but, playing in the morning, the ball rolled much better and it allowed me to make more putts.” He made, “plenty of putts today especially during the first twelve holes. During the remaining 6 I still hit the ball well but not as many putts dropped.” With solid momentum, Barcos is firmly in contention heading into the final round, “I will keep hitting my irons the way I’ve been hitting, hopefully make some putts and be aggressive, that’s the game plan for tomorrow.”

In the 3-way tie for 4^th place at 10 under-par alongside Barcos there is: France’s Victor Veyret and England’s Mason Essam.

Switzerland’s Luca Galliano, 39, made a significant move up the leaderboard after a stunning second round. After opening with an even-par 70 on day one, Galliano fired a flawless 9-under-par 61 in round 2 to reach a two-day total of 9-under-par, putting him just five shots off the lead in a 2-way tie for 7^th place. “I made a solid putt on the Hole 2, which gave me a confidence boost and set a positive tone for the remainder of the round. I was able to capitalize on the opportunities that came my way, and it felt really good. What made the day even more meaningful was having my family there to support me—performing well in front of them was truly special. I’m looking forward to tomorrow and excited to carry this momentum forward.” His remarkable round included five consecutive birdies from holes 2 to 6, followed by four more on the back nine. Currently sixth in the Alps Tour Order of Merit, Galliano is aiming to climb the rankings further with a strong finish this week.

Alongside Galliano in the 2-way tie for 7^th place there is Italy’s Flavio Michetti.

The highlight of the day belongs to Italian amateur Riccardo Cavina who made a fabulous Albatross on the Par 5, 8^thhole.

Final Round

A total of 44 players (43 professionals and 1 amateur) made the cut which was set at 138 (-2).
The Final Round will begin at 8:00 a.m. local time from the 1^st and 10^th hole. The Final Pairing will tee off at 9:17 a.m. local time from the 1^st hole.

The Tradition Continues: The 11th Edition of the Memorial Giorgio Bordoni presented by AON Returns This Week

Como, May 5^th, 2025 – After a successful Tunisian Swing and a brief break, the Alps Tour is ready to resume action this week with the 11^th edition of the 2025 Memorial Giorgio Bordoni presented by AON, held in the picturesque northwestern region of Italy. The tournament will take place from May 7^th to 9^th, 2025, at the renowned Golf Club La Pinetina in Appiano Gentile, near Como.

Named in honor of the highly regarded golf instructor Giorgio Bordoni, this event celebrates his legacy following his unexpected passing in 2013 at the age of 48. Bordoni was a co-founder of the innovative Blue Team Golf Academy, a pioneering initiative in golf coaching. He also dedicated many years to the Italian Golf Federation, where he served as National Coach and achieved numerous accomplishments throughout his career.

Since its inception in 2014, the Memorial Giorgio Bordoni has been a mainstay on the Alps Tour calendar, except for 2020 when the event was canceled due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

The tournament kicks off on May 6^th with the traditional Alps Tour Best Ball Aggregate to Par Pro-Am, which will begin with a shotgun start at 12:00 p.m. local time.

The Field

Four of this season’s five tournament winners are set to headline this week’s field, promising a highly competitive showdown. Among them are Switzerland’s Luca Galliano, currently ranked 6^th in the Order of Merit and winner of the season-opening 2025 Ein Bay Open; Spain’s Alvaro Hernandez Cabezuela, the current Order of Merit leader and two-time winner this season with victories at the 2025 Red Sea Little Venice Open and the 2025 Tunisian Golf Open; and fellow Spaniard Javier Barcos, ranked 4^th and winner of the 2025 New Giza Open.

In addition to the season’s standout winners, nine of the top ten players in the current Order of Merit standings will also tee it up this week. France’s Quentin Debove ranked 3^rd will be in the field alongside, Italy’s Jacopo Vecchi Fossa ranked 5^th, Spain’s Mario Galiano Aguilar (7^th), Filippo Bergamaschi of Italy (8^th), Ireland’s Ronan Mullarney (9^th), and Italy’s Manfredi Manica, who rounds out the top 10.

Since it was established in 2014, the Memorial Giorgio Bordoni presented by AON has become a standout event on the Alps Tour, consistently showcasing emerging talent from across Europe and beyond. The inaugural title was claimed by Spain’s Borja Virto, with fellow countrymen Sebastián García Rodríguez (2019) and Ángel Hidalgo Portillo (2021) continuing Spain’s strong tradition in the event. Italy’s Guido Migliozzi, now a multiple winner on the DP World Tour, secured victory in 2018.

A standout moment came in 2022, when Italy’s Gregorio De Leo recorded a remarkable final-round 59 to capture the title and earn promotion to the Challenge Tour, now the HotelPlanner Tour. In 2023, the Netherlands’ Kiet Van der Weele earned his second win of the season with a nine-stroke victory margin. Most recently, in 2024, Italy’s Mattia Comotti captured the trophy with an impressive 15-under-par winning score.

This week, a field of 144 players representing 16 different nationalities will compete for the sixth title of the 2025 Season.

The tournament offers a total prize fund of €42,500, and 45,000 Order of Merit points. The winner will take home €6,200 and earn 6,525 points toward the Order of Merit standings.

The Course

Nestled in the scenic woodlands of Appiano Gentile, just 35 kilometers north of Milan and 12 kilometers south of Como, Golf Club La Pinetina is set to host this week’s 2025 Memorial Giorgio Bordoni presented by AON.

Originally opened in 1971 with a 9-hole design by John Harris, the course saw an expansion with an additional 9 holes designed by Gianni Albertini. It underwent further renovations in the 2000s, led by David Mezzacane. This 5,761 meters, par-70 course is renowned for its undulating terrain and natural beauty. It covers 70 hectares of the “Appiano Gentile and Tradate Pinewood Regional Park”. The course winds through a rich landscape of pine, oak, chestnut, Scotch pine, and birch trees. Players are treated to panoramic views of the Lombardy Alps and Monte Rosa, Italy’s second-highest peak.

While not particularly long by modern standards, the course’s hilly layout and intricate design demand accuracy, strategic thinking, and careful club selection. Its distinctive natural features and standout holes make Golf Club La Pinetina a memorable and challenging test for professionals and amateurs alike.

6th September 2024 | Alps Tour Golf

Luca Galliano and Luca Memeo are in a share of the lead at the 2024 Longwy Alps Open.

Longwy, September 6^th, 2024 – After two rounds of the 2024 Longwy Alps Open, we have a close leaderboard. Luca Galliano from Switzerland moves into the lead alongside Italian amateur Luca Memeo with a two-day total of 10 under-par. Italy’s Federico Livio, Benjamin Kedochim from France, and Ireland’s Paul McBride are in a 3-way tie for 3^rdplace at 9 under-par. In a 3-way tie for 6^th place: Spain’s Albert Boneta, Italy’s Andrea Romano and Robert Holden from England.

The players competing in today’s round 2 of the inaugural 2024 Longwy Alps Open faced a mix of weather conditions, ranging from overcast skies, some light winds, some light rains, some sunshine, and a chillier temperature than yesterday’s first round. Play began this morning at 8:00 a.m. local time from the 1st and 10th hole. This is the inaugural year of the 2024 Longwy Alps Open.

Round 2 Player Quotes

Luca Galliano from Switzerland is in a two-way tie for the lead after two rounds at the 2024 Longwy Alps Open. He shot a 4 under-par 68 in today’s round 2, making 6 birdies and 2 bogeys for a two-day total of 10 under-par. After today’s round, Galliano talked about how today: “The course played quite tough, it was wet, and the pins were trickier than yesterday’s first round. Also, the weather changed as the temperature dropped quite a bit compared to yesterday as well as the pro-am.” He added that he is grateful for his: “my long game as it’s been very good lately, my tee to green has been working well I must say so it’s rewarding. I need to work a bit more on improving my putting, but overall, I’m happy.” For tomorrow’s final round, Galliano plans on: “staying in the present and keep doing what I’ve been doing so far as it seems to be working pretty well. I think the winning score will be around 14 or 15 under-par. Tonight, I’m going to relax with my friends and play some card games to get ready for tomorrow.”

Italian amateur, Luca Memeo, 19, who was tied for 2^nd place after yesterday’s opening round, moves into the two-way tie for the lead alongside Galliano with a two-day total of 10 under-par. He shot a 4 under-par, 68 in today’s round 2 making 1 bogey and 5 birdies which 2 were in the last two holes. Once Memeo completed his second round, he was pleased as: “It seems like I was able to me in the more favorable draw with the weather as we even had some sun come out this afternoon. The course was softer, and the greens had slightly more spin, and I was able to adapt well.” He is tied for the lead heading into tomorrow’s final round. He plans on: “keep doing the same thing, try to hit as many fairways as possible which will allow me to have shorter irons into the greens. I plan on turning pro within the calendar year so I’m looking forward to the rest of the tournaments.” He added that: “I stayed very patient throughout the entire round even if I missed some shots and some putts and I believe that was key for me. That’s something I will take with me for tomorrow.”

Italy’s Federico Livio, 26, moves into a three-way tie for 3^rd place after round 2 of the inaugural 2024 Longwy Alps Open. He was tied for 10^th place at 5 under-par after the first round of the tournament and today shot a 4 under-par, 68 with 1 eagle, 5 birdies and 1 triple bogey to move into the three-way tie for 3^rd place with a two-day total of 9 under-par. After his round, he commented: “My game was very good today overall even though I, unfortunately, began my round under a good rain shower, so it was hard to get the momentum going. I made an unfortunate triple bogey on the 5^th hole but luckily got it back immediately with an eagle and 2 birdies. Tomorrow, I will try to do my best and see what happens. The course today, especially this morning, was quite wet, but overall, the greens are good, and the conditions allow us to perform well. I want to keep playing like I did today for tomorrow’s round and try to hole in some more putts.”

Benjamin Kedochim, 29, from France, who is the current Order of Merit Leader, concludes round 2 of the 2024 Longwy Alps Open with a two-day of 9 under-par and finds himself in the three-way tie for 3^rd place alongside Livio. In today’s round, he shot a 2 under-par, 70 making a 1 triple bogey on the first hole and then made 3 birdies and 1 eagle on the remaining 17 holes. Kedochim explained today: “I had a rough start; I think my nerves played a big part. I had a situation on the first hole and that made my heart go up a bit. I missed my iron shot into the bunker, and with the rain coming today, I hit another bad shot, which cost me a triple bogey. Once I was able to get over the first hole, I told myself I was going to start playing again, and I had a birdie chance on the 2^nd to get things going again. I’m very pleased, especially how I was able to fight back and have a strong finish.” He added that he found the course this morning definitely: “softer due to the overnight rain as well as this morning, but the pin positions were tougher, certain were right in the corners and that made it more complicated.” Kedochim added that he learned a valuable lesson from today’s Round 2: “I know that even making a triple bogey, I can be close to the lead, so I will keep doing the same things and hope for a positive result tomorrow.”

Alongside Livio and Kedochim in the three-way tie for 3^rd place with a two-day total of 9 under-par, Ireland’s Paul McBride.

The highlight of the day belongs to Italy’s Andrea Romano and France’s Adrien Bonnet, who shot an 8 under-par, 64 in today’s round to hold the new course record at UGolf Longwy International.

Final Round

A total of 47 players made the cut, which was set at -2.

The Final Round of the 2024 Longwy Alps Open will begin at 8:40 a.m. local time from the 1^st hole. The Final Pairing will tee off at 11:25 a.m. local time from the 1^st hole. In case of a tie after 54 holes, a sudden-death play-off will determine the winner of the inaugural 2024 Longwy Alps Open.

After his round, he commented on how: “today I played very well again, especially my iron shots into the greens. I struggled a bit more with my putting today, the short-range putts but overall, I’m pretty happy as I’m 10 under-par after two rounds which is good. We will see what happens tomorrow.” He added that, “it would be great to grab a win in the early stages of the season that’s for sure, but we will see what happens tomorrow.” Manica also explained how, “today I found the conditions to be slightly easier as there was less wind compared to yesterday.”

After his disappointing finish with a double bogey on the 18^th hole, he commented: “I saw the scores this morning and saw they were low, so I knew I had to come out and play well. I’m pleased that I was able to do that as I made a lot of birdies today. I was playing smart golf today as I made the birdies where I knew I had to make birdies, and the rest, I tried to be patient and smart. I was a bit unlucky on the 10th hole, where I was unable to reach the green with my 2nd shot, and then I had a good comeback on the next hole with a birdie. I had a strong finish with a birdie on 16 and 17 and knew I was in the lead at that point, and I felt it. On the 18^th hole I missed my tee shot and was lucky to find my ball, however I made some mistake but pleased that I made a good putt to save the double bogey. I’m in contention and very happy about so we will see what happens tomorrow.”

Adalberto Montini, 24, from Italy, who was tied for 3^rd place after yesterday’s 1^st round, remains tied for 3^rd place with a two-day total of 8 under-par.

Montini is looking to capture his 1^st Alps Tour title this weekend and after his round, he mentioned: “I played well from tee to green today, the course was in fantastic shape, it was a bit windy on the front nine especially the holes next to the coast. I’m very pleased even though I three-putted the last hole, so I’m slightly annoyed with that, but overall, I’m looking forward to tomorrow, and hopefully, I can get a good round together.”

Spain’s Alvaro Hernandez Cabezuela, 27, is the 2^nd player in the 2-way tie for 3^rd place with a two-day total of 8 under-par. He made 5 birdies and 2 bogeys on the day.

After his round, ReanTrinchero was very pleased with his game: “today’s round was really good, my tee shots were really good, my irons were dialed in, and my putting was excellent. I only missed one on the 17^th hole, but the rest were perfect. The main difference in my game between yesterday and today was that yesterday, with 2 of my tee shots, I lost a ball and made a 6 on the 8th hole and an 8 on the 18th hole. Today, I just missed one, and that’s the only bogey I made.” He added that he’s super happy with the position he’s in but knows that: “Tomorrow will be tough. Manfredi Manica is a good player, and I know I need to hit fairways, hit greens, and make the putts.”

Estonia’s Sander Aadusaar and France’s Sebastien Gandon are in a three-way tie for fifth place alongside Rean Trinchero, with a two-day total of 7 under par.

He shot a final round of 5 under-par, 67 that included 1 eagle, 6 birdies,1 bogey, and 1 double bogey. Laussot turned professional in May 2023 after he graduated from college. After his victory, he was very happy, “I’m proud of the way I fought today even though in today’s final round I put a bogey and double bogey on the card. You know it’s my first Alps Tour event for me. The past couple of years have been tough for me, but I kept working, and I knew my time was going to come at some point. I’m just very proud of the process with my coaches, Greg Buisson, Antoine Schwartz, and Kenny Lesager. I have a very solid team around me, and we had some goals for this week which weren’t based on the result, but it was to commit and enjoy, and that’s exactly what I did.” Laussot was in the field this week on an invite, “I want to take the time to thank the French Federation which gave me the opportunity to come play this week, I wouldn’t be participating if it wasn’t for them.” When asked about plans for the season, he added, “Obviously, after the win today, my plans for the season are changing.

I’m happy with where my game is at so early in the season and my consistency because, if I’m not mistaken, I only made 1 bogey this week. Overall, today, compared to the past 2 days, I think the only major difference was that I was able to make more putts, but I’m excited for the next events and bring this momentum.”
