La Cigale Golf Open for Repetto

The Spaniard Rocco Repetto won the La Cigale Golf Open with 136 (66 70, -8) shots, ahead of Filippo Bergamaschi, second with 137 (66 71, -7), after a good performance. In the Alps Tour tournament, on the La Cigale Tabarka Golf course (par 72), in Tabarka in Tunisia, he was unable to play the third round due to bad weather, so the ranking was made valid after the second.

Rocco Paolo Repetto Taylor, 22, signed the fourth consecutive Spanish success in the first five events of the circuit, announced by a fourth and a sixth place in Egypt and the second in the previous Tunisia Golf Open. The Spaniard ended the initial round at the top tied with Bergamaschi, then in the second he distanced the Italian with a 70 (-2, four birdies, two bogeys), who shot 71 (-1, four birdies, three bogeys) with one bogey too many that made the difference.

The first documents attesting to the existence of rules of golf date back to March 1744. The rules were produced for a competition to be held at a Scottish golf club, and contained 13 points in total.[3] Initially, writing the rules was the responsibility of each individual club and so they varied depending on where the game was played.
