Another 1st time winner on the Alps Tour! Gianmaria Rean Trinchero captures his 1st professional title at the 2023 Fred.Olsen Alps De La Gomera
The final round of the 2023 Fred.Olsen Alps De La Gomera played at the beautiful Tecina Golf in La Gomera began at 8:30 am and the leaders teed off at 9:52 am local time under sunny skies, a warm temperature and swirly windy conditions. This is the 4th edition of the 2023 Fred.Olsen Alps De La Gomera.
Italy’s Gianmaria Rean Trinchero, 28 years old representing Golf Club Monticello, came from behind to vanquish his 1stprofessional win at the 2023 Fred.Olsen Alps De La Gomera. He shot an impressive 9 under-par, 62 in today’s final round to conclude with a three-day total of 19 under-par. He had a great start to his final round with 6 birdies in his first 7 holes of the day. Rean Trinchero has captured good results so far this season including a 2nd place finish at the 2023 Gösser Open but was looking to breakthrough and conquer his 1st professional victory. He’s been playing professional golf since 2020 and prior to his win, he was 16th in this season’s Alps Tour Order of Merit rank. After his win, Rean Trinchero’s first reactions were, “I began really well today. I played really well the front nine then I saw that I had a few shot margins between me and the player in 2nd place so I then tried to play less aggressively that’s why I made only 2 birdies on the back nine. I played extremely well and it makes it even more special and I’m very happy.” When asked about what it means to him to have captured his 1stprofessional win and became a 1st time winner on the Alps Tour, he added, “this win means a lot to me. I feel like I’ve been playing well and was 16th in the order of merit and needed to capture a win to try and be in the top 5 spots so it means a lot in this particular moment of the season. More importantly I’ve regained a good level of confidence in my game so I’m very happy about that also. I want to thank my parents, my coaches Giovanni Dassù and my putting coach Camilla Mazzola.” Looking at the rest of the season, Rean Trinchero added that: “my season goals won’t change. I need another good finish in one of the next two events to be sure I can stay in the top 5 so another win would obviously be great but I’d be happy with a few good top 5 finishes.”
Alvaro Hernandez Cabezuela from Spain whos hometown is Tenerife was tied for the lead after two rounds, had a final round of 4 under-par for a three-day total of 15 under-par. He made 1 bogey and 5 birdies in his final round. He is 26 years old, turned professional in 2021 and this is his 3rd season on the Alps Tour. After he completed his last round, Hernandez Cabezuela was satisfied even though he came up short: “I played well but Gianmaria was unbeatable, on the front 9 I left some shots out there as I was only able to make 1 birdie and made a mistake on the 8th hole. Then I played really well on the back nine but I am happy overall because I feel I can win, my performance this week reflects that I am playing well and my time will come.”
The tournament ends with a two-way tie for 3rd place with a three-day score of 13 under-par, Dutch-duo: Davey Porsius and Bob Geurts. In a four-way tie for 5th place only 1 stroke back: Spain’s Quim Vidal, France’s Franck Medale, Ireland’s Ronan Mullarney and France’s Oihan Guillamoundeguy.
After the 11th tournament of the season, Netherland’s Kiet Van der Weele keeps the Alps Tour Order of Merit lead with Ireland’s Ronan Mullarney in 2nd place and England’s Jack Floydd in 3rd place. This week’s winner Italy’s Gianmaria Rean Trinchero, moved into 6th place.

The 2nd round of the 2023 Fred.Olsen Alps De La Gomera which is being played at the breathtaking Tecina Golf on the Island De La Gomera in the Canary Islands began with a 30 minutes delay. They delay occurred as there were some very strong overnight winds that toppled various palm trees throughout the golf course therefore the head superintendent and his staff needed extra time to get the course back into playing conditions for the players. The Alps Tour wants to thank Tecina Golf head superintendent Josè Arrola and his staff as well as Real Federación Española de Golf superintendent Miguel Guerra for their incredible work to allow us to start the second round.
This is the 4th edition of the 2023 Fred.Olsen Alps De La Gomera. The 2nd round officially began at 8:50 am local time from the 1st hole.

He is 26 years old, turned professional in 2021 but is playing his 3rd season on the Alps Tour. After his round, Hernandez Cabezuela was very pleased, “I played much better today, specially from the 1st hole to the 7th. Then I had a couple more chances for birdie but unfortunately didn’t make them. I’m very happy with the score because it was a bit tougher today also condition wise. The wind was obviously a big factor today, it was very gusty so it made it even tougher.” He went on to explain that: “I caught a huge momentum going through the front nine. Just dropped a few putts and hit some really good shots making 4 birdies and 1 eagle in a row. I will for sure be looking for many more tomorrow. I will be focusing on playing my own game, I’ll need to bring my best to hopefully win my 1st title tomorrow and it would be even more special being at home.”
Oihan Guillamoundeguy from France who shot a 6 under-par, 65 during the 1st round and was tied for 5th place, finds himself in the two-way tie for the lead. He followed his opening-round with a 5 under-par, 66 in the second round for a two-day total of 11 under-par. During today’s round, he made 1 bogey, 1 eagle and 4 birdies.

He turned professional in December 2022 and he is now competing in his first season as a professional player. So far this season he has captured various top 5 finishes but is looking to breakthrough and grab his 1st title as a professional on the Alps Tour. After the second round, he was very content as he “it was a great round today. I didn’t play as well as yesterday but today was a great effort. The beginning of the day was a struggle as I was hitting some bad shots and quite unlucky in some situations which was hard but then on the 7th hole, I made a clutch putt for birdie which gave me some good momentum.” Guillamoundeguy made an incredible eagle on the par 4, 9th hole where: “My shot of the day was definitely on the 9th where I hit a 4-iron to about 5 meters from the pin and made the putt for eagle.” He went on to add that: “I will try to catch the win tomorrow for sure. It would mean a lot but I don’t want to get too far ahead. I plan on playing like the past two days and see where I end up.”

When he concluded his round, he commented that, “today was totally different than yesterday. There was much more wind but I still managed to play well and put myself in a good position. It could have been better if a few more putts dropped but overall, I’m happy. It definitely played a bit harder and I had to focus on what direction the wind was coming from.” Geurts went on to add that, “tomorrow I plan to just play my own game like I did the past two days and see if it will be good enough for the win.”

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.
