Author of an extraordinary lap with a card of 61 (-11), Kristoffer Broberg (photo) offers himself eight points ahead of his first pursuer, the Dane Marcus Helligkilde, before the last eighteen holes on Sunday. Tenth to -10 (206), Adrien Saddier and Romain Langasque aim for the podium …
Another magical day for the Risen One Kristoffer Broberg, 35 years old, winner of BMW Masters 2015 after a play-off against the American Patrick Reed. The Swedish, leader with a small head start at the start of this Moving day, offered a huge round of golf, ending Saturday with an incredible 61 (-10) studded with an eagle and ten birdies (including four in a row between holes 14 and 17) for a single bogey.
Unleashed, the Scandinavian, yet handicapped for two years by repeated injuries, posted a masterful score of -23 (193) before the last round. Danish Marcus Helligkilde, 68 (-4) today, is eight strokes behind. German Mathias Schmid, English Richard Mansell and the Spanish Alejandro Canizares complete the podium at -14 (202).

Barring a nuclear disaster, it is now difficult to see how Broberg can let the victory slip away over this Bernardus Golf from Cromvoit (Netherlands) whose course record has exploded every day since Thursday …
Very solid with a community card of 68, Adrien saddier and Romain Langasque for their part hang tenth place in this Dutch Open 2021. At -10 (206), the duo can largely aim for the podium (four strokes ahead). As for the victory, however, it will be much more difficult. The two Frenchmen are thirteen lengths behind the leader!
