Lars Keunen holds off the chasing pack to win in La Gomera
La Gomera, July 4th, 2026 – Although he started the final round alone at the top of the leaderboard, Lars Keunen still had plenty of work to do at the Fred. Olsen Alps de La Gomera. The Dutchman rose to the occasion with another composed display at Tecina Golf, securing the third Alps Tour title of his career, following the 2020 Ein Bay Open and the 2023 Tenerife Pro Golf Open.
The 29-year-old, who has made every cut this season, managed the final round superbly. His flawless 65 (-6) never gave his closest challengers a real opportunity to close the gap.
Starting the day further back, France’s Paul Margolis and Italy’s Mattia Comotti both carded 66 (-5) to climb into a share of second place, four shots behind the winner. They were joined by Spain’s Eduard Rousaud and Italy’s Marco Florioli.
With this victory, Keunen earns €6,900 and 6,525 Order of Merit points, moving up to sixth in the season standings, just behind Alexandre Vandermoten (3rd), Robert Moran (4th), Pablo Alperi (5th), and Enrico Di Nitto (6th).
The race for qualification to the 2026 Hulencourt Alps Tour Grand Final and promotion to the HotelPlanner Tour will resume on Thursday, July 9th, at Golf de Lerma, Spain, for the 2026 Alps de Las Castillas.
Round 3 Player Quotes
Lars Keunen: “It was obviously a great day. I felt very relaxed this morning, having breakfast with an amazing view over the Atlantic Ocean. Knowing that around 20 players were within a few shots, I knew I had to keep making birdies myself.
I didn’t have the perfect start, but I stayed patient. I took advantage of the scoring holes, especially the par fives, and tried not to look at the leaderboard too much. The birdie on the 15th was a big turning point, and after that I felt in control. By the end, it was a pretty relaxed finish.
Having my girlfriend here this week was a huge help. She kept me positive whenever I started being too hard on myself. She said she came for the vibes… and I guess she got the vibes. Now I’m looking forward to next week’s tournament in Spain and seeing what I can do there.”
Paul Margolis: “Overall, the three rounds were very similar. I played really well from tee to green, and my short game was very solid too. To be honest, every part of my game was in good shape this week. I’ve felt my game improving steadily over the last few tournaments, so this result gives me a lot of confidence. Now I just want to keep doing the same things I’ve been doing over the past three or four events: keep it simple, focus on my own game and not on what everyone else is doing.”

3rd July 2026 | Alps Tour Golf
Lars Keunen leads wide-open battle heading into final round at Tecina Golf
La Gomera, July 3rd, 2026 – The stage is set for an exciting final round at the Fred. Olsen Alps de La Gomera, with nearly 20 players still in realistic contention for the title. Dutchman Lars Keunen will nevertheless take a slender advantage into Saturday after carding an excellent 65 (-6) despite making two early bogeys. Keunen bounced back impressively from his slow start, making two eagles and four birdies to move to 11-under par after 36 holes.
Overnight leader Maximilien Sturdza remains firmly in contention, just one shot off the lead. The Swiss player shares second place with Spain’s Alfonso Buendia and Italy’s Luca Memeo and Marco Florioli.
With low scores proving possible—illustrated by Flavio Michetti‘s superb 63 (-8) on Friday—the tournament remains wide open. Twenty players are within four shots of Keunen heading into the final round.
For tomorrow’s final round, play will begin at 8:30 a.m. from both the 1st and 10th tees. At the conclusion of the third round, the winner will receive €6,900 and 6,525 Order of Merit points. In the event of a tie, a playoff will determine the champion.
Round 2 Player Quotes
Lars Keunen: “It was obviously a great round and I’m very happy with it. It actually started with my girlfriend’s birthday this morning, so we had a fun and relaxed start to the day before heading to the course. I didn’t get off to the best start with two bogeys on holes two and three, but a birdie on the fourth gave me some momentum. From there, making two eagles on the par fives really changed the round. I love this course. I’ve been coming here for a few years now, and it really suits my eye, even if I hadn’t had my best results here before.”
Luca Memeo: “I finished five under today. My round actually started badly with a lost ball on the second hole and a double bogey, but I answered immediately with an eagle on the next hole. That helped me stay relaxed and just focus on playing my game. I hit the ball well from tee to green and holed a few putts. Tomorrow my goal is simply to stay as focused as possible, hit good tee shots and give myself a chance to win.”
Alfonso Buendia: “It was a really good round today. I started with a three-putt and another bogey, but I stayed patient and managed to make a lot of birdies after that. The conditions were a bit different with no sun and more humidity, which made distance control trickier, but overall I think it was easier than yesterday because there was less wind. Tomorrow I’ll stick to the same strategy because everyone is playing well and you’ll need plenty of birdies to win.”
Maximilien Sturdza: “Today was good, even if a few fewer putts dropped compared to yesterday. I stayed patient throughout the round and finally saw a few putts go in towards the end. I finished with a bogey, but there are still plenty of positives. I’ve only made two bogeys over the first two rounds, which is encouraging. Tomorrow I’ll keep doing the same things: stay patient, create birdie opportunities and enjoy the day.”

2nd July 2026 | Alps Tour Golf
Switzerland’s Maximilien Sturdza sets the pace in La Gomera
La Gomera, July 2nd, 2026 – Under the Canary Islands sunshine, Maximilien Sturdza made the perfect start to this year’s Fred. Olsen Alps de La Gomera. Playing in the morning, the Swiss player carded an excellent 63 (-8) to take the opening-round lead.
The 26-year-old, who finished 11th last week at the UGolf Aravell Andorra Open, produced a flawless bogey-free round. He made his move with a superb stretch of five birdies in six holes between the 6th and the 11th, setting the pace after the opening day.
Despite an early bogey on the 5th, Spain’s Alfonso Buendia opened with a 65 (-6) thanks in part to an eagle on the 4th. He shares second place with fellow Spaniard Gonzalo Leal, whose eventful round included one eagle, eight birdies and four bogeys.
Round 2 will begin at 8:10 a.m. local time from the 1st tee at Tecina Golf. At the conclusion of the second round, a cut will be made to the top 40 professionals and ties (including all amateurs within the cut), who will advance to the final round.
Round 1 Player Quotes
Maximilien Sturdza: “I felt good when I woke up and just went through my normal warm-up. I got off to a good start and it was nice to finish with a bogey-free round. I was four under through nine, and then the putts just kept dropping. I only missed one or two greens all day, which shows my game is in a good place. Over the next two days, I’ll just try to do the same thing, stay consistent and remain mentally present.”
Alfonso Buendía: “I’m very happy to be back here, as I am every year. It’s a beautiful place and the course is in great condition. It was a really solid round and I’m pleased with my game. I only missed one drive all day, so overall I’m very satisfied. The goal now is to stick to the same strategy and hopefully stay near the top of the leaderboard.”

Tecina Golf Welcomes Back the 6th edition of the Fred. Olsen Alps de La Gomera
La Gomera, June 30th, 2026- The Alps Tour heads back to the Canary Islands for the 14th tournament of the season, the 2026 Fred. Olsen Alps De La Gomera. The tournament will be played at the fascinating Tecina Golf from July 2nd– 4th 2026.
The 2026 tournament will mark the sixth edition of the event, further strengthening its place as one of the Alps Tour’s most established and anticipated stops. Following successful editions in 2018, 2019, 2022, 2023, and 2025, it has consistently attracted strong fields and produced memorable champions. The tournament was not held in 2024 due to renovations at the host venue, Hotel Jardín Tecina.
Tecina Golf has long served as a showcase for emerging talent, with several former competitors going on to achieve success at the highest levels of professional golf. The venue has hosted 20 professional tournaments to date, including eight HotelPlanner Tour events between 2009 and 2016. Among its distinguished list of champions is major winner Brooks Koepka, who claimed victory at Tecina Golf in 2013 during the early stages of his professional career.
The 2026 Fred. Olsen Alps De La Gomera will be contested over 54-holes of stroke-play, with a cut after 36 holes to the top 40 professionals and ties, including all amateurs within the cut. In the event of a tie at the conclusion of the final round, the tournament winner will be decided by a sudden-death play-off.
The players competing this week will contend a minimum prize fund of € 46,000 and 45,000 Order of Merit points.
On July 1st, the traditional Tour Scramble, Par is your Friend will occur.
The Field
An outstanding field is set to compete in this year’s edition of the 2026 Fred.Olsen Alps de la Gomera.
Several winners from this season have confirmed their participation, including Italy’s Enrico Di Nitto, Spain’s Alejandro Rodriguez Andreu, Ireland’s Sam Murphy, and Paul Franquet from France, as well as two-time season winner, Alexandre Vandermoten from France.
Eight players currently ranked inside the Top 10 of the Alps Tour Order of Merit are scheduled to tee it up this week in the Canary Islands- The only absentees from the top positions are Order of Merit leader Italy’s Andrea Romano and France’s Maxime Legros, who occupies second place in the standings.
Romano and Legros have each claimed three victories this season, earning immediate promotion to the HotelPlanner Tour for the remainder of the year.
Further enhancing an already impressive field are two proven DP World Tour winners. Alvaro Quiros from Spain, a seven-time DP World Tour winner and runner-up at last year’s Fred.Olsen Alps de La Gomera, returns to La Gomera alongside fellow Spaniard Alejandro Cañizares, a two-time DP World Tour champion.
As the 2026 season progresses, players continue to compete for a place inside the top five of the Order of Merit, which at season’s end will secure promotion to the 2027 HotelPlanner Tour. Furthermore, the leading six players (including amateurs) on the Alps Tour Order of Merit at a cut-off date determined by the DP World Tour will be exempt from Stage 1 of the 2026 DP World Tour Qualifying School.
The Course
Tecina Golf, one of the top three courses in the Canary Islands, is a par 71 course measuring 6,343 meters from the white tees. Designed by renowned British architect Donald Steel, it is located on the hill of Lomada de Tecina on La Gomera, a UNESCO World Biosphere Reserve since 2012. The 18-hole course offers a unique design, beginning with a climb to the first tee and unfolding entirely downhill with every hole facing the Atlantic Ocean. Steel described it as “the most exciting and challenging project I have ever designed and built.” Surrounded by sweeping ocean views and the majestic Mount Teide in the distance, Tecina Golf offers a rare blend of challenge and natural beauty.
The course is immersed in native Canary Islands flora, with fairways and greens bordered by vibrant vegetation including tabaiba shrubs, spurge cactus, and fruit-bearing trees such as banana, mango, and avocado. This lush environment not only defines the visual identity of the course but also fills the air with the distinct fragrances of its surroundings. Located in Playa Santiago, San Sebastián de La Gomera, Tecina Golf offers a multi-sensory experience in a tranquil setting, combining pristine golf with the silence, nature, and mild climate that make La Gomera an unforgettable destination.

This is the 4th edition of the 2023 Fred.Olsen Alps De La Gomera after its previous three editions which were hosted in 2018, 2019 and 2022.

Round 1 Player Quotes
Ireland’s Ronan Mullarney, 27 years old leads by 2 strokes after his great 1st round at the 2023 Fred.Olsen Alps de La Gomera. He shot a bogey-free, 9 under-par opening round. He currently sits in 2nd place in the Order of Merit Rank and captured his 1st full-field professional win at the 2023 Gösser Open which took place in May. He previously had played in some events in 2020 before the Covid-19 pandemic began but this is his 1st full year on the Alps Tour. Mullarney turned professional in 2019 and competed in the 2022 Open Championship. After his performance, he commented: “I’m very pleased, I played nice and putted quite well. Today I was able to birdie a lot of the par 5s and one eagle which definitely helped. The course is nice, the practice putting green is different than the course so it took a little while to get used to while I got out there.” He added that he’s “usually fairly aggressive off the tees hitting a lot of drivers, and I plan to keep doing that the next two rounds and hopefully I keep putting well.”
Kevin Hesbois from Belgium, 32 years old who currently represents Ternesse Golf & Country Club, concluded his 1st round with a 7 under-par, 64 and is one of the three players tied for 2nd place only 2 strokes back. He made 1 eagle, 6 birdies and 1 bogey during his opening round. After his round, Hesbois commented on how well he played, “Today was fun and I obviously played well all day. On the front nine, I hit it close a couple times which helped create the momentum for the round. I was able to finish strong as well which is always nice when you have it going low.” Hesbois went on to add that: “course is really good. Conditions are good and promote low scoring. Wind was a small factor. The warmth was harder to manage. I have no real expectations this week. Just going to keep focusing on the right things. Only goal is to give myself as many birdie chances as possible and stay as patient as possible. Scores will take care of themselves.”
Netherland’s Bob Geurts, 24 years old is the second player tied for 2nd place with a first-round score of 7 under-par. He turned professional towards the end of last year and prior to this week, his best finishes were a tie for 11th place at the 2023 Gösser Open and at the 2023 Croara Alps Open. During today’s round, he made 1 eagle, 4 birdies and 1 bogey on the front nine and 1 bogey and 3 birdies on the back nine for a 64. After his round, Geurts was happy that he “hit the ball great and put myself in good spots to make birdies. It was a really solid day of golf. I tried to keep it simple and put a good round together.” He also commented that Tecina Golf “is great, it’s a relaxing and nice course. I love the layout and the fact that there wasn’t a lot of wind today was very fortunate.”
Twenty-six years old, Davide Buchi from Italy is the third player tied for 2nd place after his opening bogey- free 7 under-par, 64. He currently represents Golf Club Varese and has gathered a couple of top 20 finishes so far this season. Buchi began his round with 2 birdies and an unbelievable albatross on the par 5, 3rd hole in his first four holes. After his bogey-free round, Buchi happily commented that “I hit a great iron shot but I’d never thought that it would go in. It’s my first albatross of my career. It for sure gave me good momentum for the remaining of the round. I want to keep thinking about my own game and keep playing well like today. The course is in excellent conditions and the rough isn’t too high, therefor we will be able to go low.”
In the 3-way tie for 5th place at 6 under-par: France’s Oihan Guillamoundeguy, Ireland’s Michael Young and Spanish amateur Jose Antonio Sintes Navarro.
The highlight of the day belongs to Italy’s Davide Buchi who made an incredible albatross on the 500 meters par 5, 3rd hole.
