Jun 29, 2025 | Featured, South Africans abroad

Jayden Schaper pulled off another top-10 finish on the DP World Tour on Sunday as his closing one-under-par 69 in the Italian Open gave him a share of 10th at Argentario Golf Club in Monte Argentario, Italy.

Schaper finished the week on seven-under, which left him seven strokes behind the winning total of 14-under by Frenchman Adrien Saddier. Saddier took his maiden DP World Tour title with a closing four-under 66. That put him two clear of countryman Martin Couvra, with Scot Calum Hill and former Joburg Open winner Dan Bradbury of England a further two strokes back on 10-under in a share of third.

Schaper jumped inside the top 10 with an eagle-three on the closing hole, after making a single birdie on the front nine. He made two on the back nine, but also dropped three strokes with bogeys on 13, 16 and 17. He holed his third shot on the 19th from 119 yards out.
