Matt Wallace maintains a 4-shot lead heading into the final round in Switzerland after a wild, windy Saturday
After a Saturday on which only three players broke par at the windy Crans-sur-Sierre Golf Club in Crans Montana, Switzerland, England’s Matt Wallace retained his four-shot lead entering Sunday’s final round of the Omega European Masters on the DP World Tour. At 11-under-par, Wallace is four shots clear of first-round co-leader Alfredo Garcia-Heredia, who managed an ever-par 71 on Saturday. Wind gusts around 35 mph led to a scoring average of 74.14, nearly six shots higher than each of the first two rounds.

Alex Fitzpatrick struggled to a 75 and surrendered two shots off the lead, opening Sunday’s final round in a tie for fifth. Andrew Johnston and Henrik Norlander stand five shots back in a tie for third. Edoardo Molinari’s two-under 69 lifted him into the group in fifth place along with Fitzpatrick, Swiss native Cedric Gugler and Jason Scrivener.
Jonas Blixt had the low round of the day with a 68 and is in a group of six players tied for ninth along with Sebastian Söderberg — who carded a third-round 69 — and 2021 champion Rasmus Højgaard.
The winner earns $553,500 from the $3.25 million tournament purse along with 835 points in the Race 2 Dubai Rankings for the season-ending playoffs. With a win, Wallace would jump 95 places to 22nd on the rankings list. The owner of four DP World Tour victories, he is winless since September 2018, though he has played at least 13 PGA Tour events a season since 2018-19 and won the 2023 Corales Puntacana Championship.
