Victory at Last: Nicolai Von Dellingshausen Becomes a Champion
In an exhilarating turn of events at the Austrian Alpine Open on June 1, 2025, golfer Nicolai Von Dellingshausen clinched his first-ever title on the DP World Tour. After a long and arduous journey spanning 110 attempts, this moment was nothing short of triumphant for the German golfer.
A Day of Glory
Von Dellingshausen finished the tournament with an impressive score of 19-under par, a feat marked by a final round of 65, which included five birdies and an eagle. He demonstrated incredible skill and composure throughout the day, especially during a standout performance starting on the 8th hole. It was there that he showcased his talent with a sensational birdie-eagle-birdie streak.
Although there was a brief hiccup in his game with one bogey on the front nine, the nerves that often accompany major tournament pressure were evident, particularly on the 18th hole. Yet, Von Dellingshausen managed to hold it together, ultimately securing his win by a narrow two strokes over his competitors, Marcel Schneider and Kristoffer Reitan, both of whom wrapped up their rounds at 17-under par.
Close Call for Reitan
In a spectacular display of golfing prowess, Reitan made headlines of his own by shooting an astonishing final-round 60. This exceptional performance nearly clinched him a sub-60 round, but he narrowly missed an eagle putt that would have placed him in the history books. Nevertheless, with Von Dellingshausen’s solid play, it wasn’t enough to dethrone the new champion.
