He had finished on the second step of the Jacques Leglise Trophy last year but this year Maxence Giboudot intends to do better. On the path that can lead him to victory, the player from Val de Sorne and resident of the performance center of Terre Blanche, has just ticked a first box this evening and with style.
Maxence Giboudot’s two cards during the Ganay Cup.
By returning a second card of -5 (66), the young tricolor wins the Ganay Cup at 8. The first step is therefore validated since he continues his journey towards the final title and also offers himself the bonus of lifting this cup, which will soon be a hundred years old: “I’m very happy to have won the Ganay even if the basic objective was to qualify among the 32. It’s done and with the bonus that will give me a little more confidence. I applied my strategy quite simply and the birdies fell, so now it’s a new tournament that starts with the matches. There are five to win and I don’t want to stay hungry like last year so I know what I have to do.” commented Maxence after his game.
The opening round of this French Men’s Championship therefore ends with the winning of the Ganay by Maxence Giboudot but it is from Friday that the serious things begin. At the start, tomorrow morning, there will therefore be 32 to compete for the round of 16 before the 16 qualified go on to the round of 16 in the afternoon. The table of Jacques Leglise Trophy will offer from the first round of pretty encounters such as the duels which will oppose Arthur Carlier at Adam Bresnu or Hugo Malcor at Noa Auch-Roy. First departure scheduled for 8:30 am.
