Challenge Tour.
Matt Wallace won the event claiming his first European Tour victory. Since 2017 it continued as Challenge Tour-only event. However, in 2020, as part of major changes to the season due to the
COVID-19 pandemic, it returned to the European Tour schedule as a dual-ranking event.
Garrick Higgo won the 2020 event for his maiden European Tour win. In 2021, the event returned as a sole-sanctioned Challenge Tour event. ==Winners==
