Romain recorded eight major amateur victories in a stellar amateur career. He won the Spanish International in 2016 and most notably won the Amateur Championship in 2015.

This victory gained him entry to the Open at St Andrews where he made the cut (T65). He then became the first French Amateur to make the cut at the Masters in 2016. His back nine 31 on the Sunday also tied the record for the lowest back nine score by an amateur in Masters history and he came tied for 39th.

He turned professional in April 2016 as the #4 ranked Amateur in the world.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
