Thirteenth tournament on the Challenge Tour and first victory for Félix Mory (26) at the Dormy Open, which took place this week on the Akersberga course (Sweden).
Pushed into play off by the Swede Bjorn Hellgren, Mory (-15) had previously returned four well-made cards: 69-64-66-74, for a total of -15.
Insufficient, however, since Hellgren caught up with him with a birdie on the final hole of the 4th round.
Fortunately for him, the Frenchman only needed to return twice to the par 5 of the same 18 hole in order to sign a final birdie signifying the sudden death of his opponent.

The Northerner - he is from Villeneuve d'Ascq and grew up in Lille - thus won his second professional success after that obtained on the Golden State Tour in the United States, during the Temecula Open played in California last March.
It is the first trophy won on the Challenge by the 1127th player in the world, who lives all year round in Munich, Germany.
"It feels awesome. Getting it done is not easy, winning is always hard. It is only my second win as a pro. It really takes a lot of work and patience to get it done and I am happy that I came out on top today. "
