The highlight of Jean-François Remésy’s career is surely the back-to-back Open de France titles in 2004 and 2005 where he said that, “apart from a Major, there is no bigger tournament for a Frenchman to win than this one”.
 
Remésy visited the European Tour Qualifying School on 11 occasions before finding success at the 12th. His persistence paid off and he finished a career high 19th in the Order of Merit in 2004.
 
A French Amateur champion in 1985, he turned pro in 1987. Remésy had a strong start to his senior career in 2019 finishing 4th in the Order of Merit with a first, three seconds and two thirds. His first victory came in Cornwall at Trevose beating Barry Lane by a shot.
