Beautiful performances by two Frenchmen who finish 4th tied, Robin Sciot-Siegrist and the Breton Damien Perrier, Bluegreen ambassador. Performances praised by an ever-increasing audience who voted a little more each year for this major event for the city of Pléneuf-Val-André and its region.

Eole, a regular visitor, invites himself the first 2 days of the tournament. Short but demanding, the Pléneuf route becomes formidable when the wind appears. As a result, only 16 players out of 156 bring a card under the par after the first day. Among them, 3 French, Frédéric Lacroix, the amateur Victor Joffray and the Breton and Bluegreen ambassador, Damien Perrier.

On the second day, conditions improve slightly and allow 23 players to find themselves under par, 66 players in total cross the cut. Among them, 10 French, Antoine Rozner, Grégory Bourdy, Robin Roussel, and the amateur Jeong weon Ko. Frédéric Lacroix and Damien Perrier still lead the tricolor clan in - 3, the leader being Josh Geary at - 5 (NZL).

Things are becoming clearer on this 'moving day *', the German Sebastian Heisele makes his appearance at the top of the ranking with a very good card of 65 which follows his 64 of the day before, best card of the week. He leads suddenly in front of the Englishman Dale Whitnell. Three French are in the game to play for victory after this third round, Antoine Rozner (already winner of 2 tournaments on the Challenge Tour this season), Robin Sciot-Siegrist and Damien Perrier, all 3 to 3 shots from the leader.

Like every year on the sidelines of the tournament, Bluegreen organized events to promote golf to the public. Free Initiations, Street-Golf in town and on the beach were on the program of this sunny day. And for this 13th edition on the Challenge Tour, Bluegreen has again innovated by organizing 2 competitions annexed to the pro tournament with the par 3 team competitions and that of Beat the pro open to young golfers. The par 3 competition brought together teams grouped by nation, with the objective of finishing closest to the hole. In this game, Spain won with the pair made up of Carlos Pigem and Santiago Tarrio Ben.

The Beat the pro animation allowed 6 young players from the Brittany region to compete amicably with professional players on hole 13 of the course. At the applaudimeter, it is the young Inès Loussouarn of the Saint-Samson golf course who wins by succeeding in a superb birdie on the hole.

Contested under a bright sun and in front of a large audience, the last lap will see the victory of the German Sebastian Heisele who knew how to keep his lead acquired the day before. Solid throughout the day, he only trembled on hole 14 where a stray bullet cost him a bogey. This first victory allowed him to enter the top 45 of the Road to Mallorca. On the French side, the animators are Damien Perrier who offers spectators who came to support him his best result on the Brittany Open with a tied 4th place, tied with Robin Sciot-Siegrist, author of a 67 (- 3) and which both finish at - 8 total.
