Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ The number in brackets after each winner's name is the number of Alps Tour events they had won up to and including that tournament. It is rare for someone to accumulate many wins on the Alps Tour as success at this level usually leads to promotion to the Challenge Tour.

The two Borja, Etchart and Virto confirmed as well their card for the Challenge Tour next season and France's Thomas Elissalde who missed the cut, did not loose his precious 5th place. Italy's Nino Bertasio did not play this week as he was sure not to be overpass thank to his advantage in the ranking.
