The key of the tournament today was the last hole. Three players, Philip Rowe, Pierre Relecom and Alexandre Mandonnet cought their place in the play off by birdied the 18th. Mandonnet had to hole the 17th too...

The tremedous story went on the last green again during the first extra hole. Mandonnet was the only one to find the faiway and hit the green in two. Far from the pin, 12 meters. His competitors were closer for a birdy, 6 meters for belgium man and a little more than 1 for the englishman.

Rookie Alexandre Mandonnet broke the suspens quickly holing the putt for eagle and catching his first trophy.

Turned pro two months ago, Pierre Relecom can be proud of him. He shot 60 today, 12 under par, with strange feelings all day :
"First I shot 7 under at front 9, my previous record was 6 so I started the back nine a bit nervous. Then I birdied 10, 11 an 13 son the pressure of good score disapeared and I kept on thinking about 59... I was really near the hole on 18th for eagle but I missed it..."
The 23 years old, son of the president of Royal Belgium federation, has still half way to get his first trophy.

Cut fixed at -1.
