Players Quotes-
Luca Galliano from Switzerland has a 2 strokes lead over France’s Louis Bellan heading into tomorrow’s final round. He shot a 5 under-par 67 today at Golf Nazionale for a two-day total of 9 under-par. Today Luca was pleased as he had a tough start to his second round but was able to turn it around midway. After he signed his card, he commented: “Today was a good round, definitely a positive round. I had a rough start being +3 after 5 holes and wasn’t playing. After that I just told myself let’s try it, I hit a good shot into the 7th hole for eagle and after that my round began. I played solid, just trying to hit every fairway, every green and make some putts.” Luca finished his round strong with an eagle on the par 5 18th hole: “I risked it off the tee on the 18th hole hitting driver and got rewarded with another good shot and made about a 20ft putt for a very good eagle to finish my round off.”
France’s Louis Bellan is in 2nd place with a two-day total of 7 under-par. Today, he shot a 3 under-par 70 at Olgiata Golf Club with 4 birdies and a single bogey. After today’s round, Louis commented: “My game was pretty solid. My driving was on point today and the putts were dropping on the front nine holes. I prefer Olgiata Golf Club out of the two courses, but it’s great to be able to play on two amazing courses.”
Ireland’s Paul Murphy who yesterday was in a tie for 3rd place at 4 under-par, concluded his 2nd round with a two-day total of 6 under-par. Today, he competed at Golf Nazionale. He is in a share for 3rd place heading into tomorrow’s final round. Paul was very pleased with his tournament so far but is tremendously grateful to his friend Harry McGeary that flew in to caddy for him during the first 2 rounds this week. After his round, Paul happily commented: “I went out there today with the intention like nothing happened yesterday and pretty much stuck to my game plan and routine but most importantly believed in myself. Every time I got down I knew I was able to get birdies along the way as I was very confident in myself so it didn’t really bug me.” When asked what he thought about starting his tournament at Olgiata GC, Paul responded: “Yesterday for me personally I had an easier start by starting on the back nine. I knew I wanted to start by going low and then the round took over itself. Luckily, I continued the momentum from yesterday’s round into the round today.” Ahead of tomorrow’s final round where 2023 Alps Tour playing cards are at stake, he said: “Tomorrow I will focus again on the same thing like today by thinking nothing happened today. Take one shot at a time and believe in myself. I put the hard work to use so far so now I just have to let it happen.”

He began his round with 3 birdies on the front nine and then went on to make 3 birdies and 1 bogey on the back nine to score a 5 under-par 67 today at Golf Nazionale. After he finished his round, Marc proudly commented his round by saying: “I played really well, I played with a very intelligent mindset. I’ve played numerous times here before so I know the course very well. My goal today was just to hit the ball in the fairway and believe in my good iron play and it came out to be a very good round to start my Q-School.” When asked about his thoughts about the course he will be playing tomorrow, Olgiata GC, Marc explained: “Olgiata is a great golf course, well actually both of them are. I’m looking forward to tomorrow even though I think Olgiata Golf Club is slightly trickier, it’s very narrow and very long. I’m definitely pleased with my opening round to get ready for tomorrow’s round.”
Ireland’s Robin Dawson is one of the 7 players who is in the tie for 3rd place after today’s 1st round. Today, he began his round at Golf Nazionale with 4 birdies on the front nine and then went on to make 1 birdie and 1 bogey on the back nine to conclude. When his round finished Robin commented: “I’ve been pretty confident coming into this week but you never know until you have a scorecard in your hand. I got off to a good start today being 4 under after 9 holes and it could have been a few shots better. I halted a little on the back nine, I got into a defense mechanism. Pretty please with my 68 today all in all. Hopefully tomorrow another 68 would be nice but we will see it’s a great course so I’m looking forward to it.”
