Adrien Saddier Wins First DP World Tour Title at Italian Open in 200th Start

Adrien Saddier won his first DP World Tour title at the Italian Open in his 200th start, finishing two strokes ahead of fellow Frenchman Martin Couvra. Saddier overcame early bogeys with a remarkable back-nine performance, including five birdies over seven holes, to secure a four-under 66 and a 14-under-par total. This victory also earned both Saddier and Couvra spots in the upcoming Open Championship at Royal Portrush. Saddier's decisive moment came on the 16th hole, where he extended his lead to three shots after Couvra’s costly bogey. Scotland's Calum Hill and England's Dan Bradbury tied for third place. Saddier credited his win to maintaining focus and composure during the back nine, marking a significant milestone after recovering from illness earlier in the season.
