Description

The Italian Open is the men's national open golf championship of Italy. It was founded in 1925 and, except for 1933 and during World War II, was played annually until 1960. After an eleven-year hiatus, it returned in 1971 when it was one of five tournaments in Continental Europe that were included on the British PGA Order of Merit circuit. The following year of that circuit has since been recognised as the first official season of the European Tour, and the Italian Open is one of few tournaments that have featured on the schedule every year. The 2018 event was the 75th edition of the championship.
In 2017 the European Tour created the Rolex Series, a group of events with higher prize money, with the Italian Open being one of the designated events with total prize money increased to US$7 million, more than double that of the previous year. In 2020 the tournament was not part of the Rolex Series, having been rescheduled with much lower prize money due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The event takes place Sep 02 - 05 and has a prize fund of EUR 3,000,000.

Nicolai Højgaard held off a stellar chasing pack to claim his maiden European Tour title with a narrow one shot victory at the 2021 DS Automobiles Italian Open which saw him create history alongside his twin brother Rasmus.
The Danish 20-year-olds become the first brothers to win back to back events on the European Tour after Rasmus Højgaard won last week's Omega European Masters in Switzerland.
