Frederic Lacroix

Frederic Lacroix qualified for his Open debut courtesy of a joint runner-up finish at the Investec South African Open Championship in March.

The Frenchman finished three strokes behind winner Casey Jarvis at Stellenbosch Golf Club but did enough to claim one of the three Open places on offer as part of the Open Qualifying Series (OQS). He finished the week level with Francesco Laporta and Hennie du Plessis, however Lacroix and Laporta qualified for Royal Birkdale due to their superior world ranking positions.

Lacroix won on the DP World Tour at the Danish Golf Championship in August 2024, finishing four shots clear of Romain Langasque and Lucas Bjerregaard.

He made his major debut at the 2025 U.S. Open at Oakmont Country Club.
