It was a special final round for Guido Migliozzi.
He started the final round of the Cazoo Open de France at Le Golf National in Paris five shots behind leader Rasmus Hojgaard, who had led after each of the first three rounds. But Migliozzi was the one hoisting the trophy on Sunday evening.
Migliozzi used an electric 9-under 62 final round to vault up the leaderboard and capture the Cazoo Open at 16 under. It is the third DP World Tour victory for Migliozzi and the lowest final round in 104 years at the Cazoo Open.
“I was confident that one day I was going to get in the winner’s circle again,” said Migliozzi, who recorded his first victory since 2019. “It’s incredible. I’ve worked really hard this season.”

Migliozzi began his round with five straight pars, but he found lightning in a bottle on the sixth hole. He proceeded to birdie five straight holes and eight in 10 to shoot him into a tie for the lead. But he played an excellent approach shot into the par-4 18th, leaving him a short par putt that he buried to give him the win.
Hojgaard finished at 15 under, one shot behind Migliozzi.
