Alejandro Canizares

No. 147, Hitting A Stretch Of Top-10s

Lost in the abundance of top class Spanish golfers playing around the globe for a number of years, Alejandro Canizares has always been one of the European Tour’s steadier players and with recent play he’s threatening to make more noise than he has for quite some time.

After a challenging mid-summer period, Canizares has stumbled into a rich vein of form. Seventh at the Italian Open, fourth at the KLM Open and fifth at the Paul Lawrie Matchplay gives the 33-year-old three top-10 finishes in his last four starts, with the other being a top-25 at the Omega European Masters.

Canizares is another who played this event last year, and although he didn’t truly get into contention, a top-25 finish should at least mean he has already established a level of comfort with the course.
