Antoine Rozner made his major debut at the 2021 PGA Championship and two months later played his first Open after being called up as replacement for South Korean KH Lee.
He returned two years later after coming through Final Qualifying, and makes it back for The 153rd Open at Royal Portrush after seven top ten finishes in last season's DP World Tour.
The winner of six tournaments while at the University of Missouri-Kansas City, he turned professional in 2016 aged 23 after representing France in the Eisenhower Trophy world amateur team championship in Mexico. He also played for Europe in the Palmer Cup college match against the United States at Formby, where he won all his four games.
Rozner, whose older brother Olivier is also a professional, won twice on the 2019 Challenge Tour and after stepping on to the main circuit captured the 2020 Golf in Dubai Championship by two. On returning to the Middle East the following March he added the Commercial Bank Qatar Masters in even more dramatic fashion, sinking a closing 60-foot birdie putt to triumph by one.
He also won the 2022 AfrAsia Mauritius Open, and at the DP World Championship in November he tied for third to secure a spot at Royal Portrush and a PGA Tour card.
