Anthony Snobeck

Anthony Snobeck (born 20 April 1983) is a French professional golfer, who has played on both the European and Challenge Tours.

Biography

Snobeck was born in Paris; his father Dany was a successful racing driver who won the French Supertouring Championship three times and the Andros Trophy twice, and the family lived adjacent to Magny-Cours, where he owned a car company. Snobeck began playing golf in 1995, and by the age of seventeen was a three-handicap. He began being coached by Antoine Lebouc, former European Tour player and husband of Patricia Meunier-Lebouc, in 2002, and under his guidance turned professional in 2005. After a season on the Alps Tour, Snobeck recorded his first win as a professional at the 2006 Tessali-Metaponto Open di Puglia e Basilicata on the Challenge Tour, and finished the season at 23rd on the rankings, just outside the top twenty graduates. However, Snobeck did belatedly reach the top-tier European Tour in 2009, by coming through the Qualifying School. His 2009 season was a struggle, however, and he made only four cuts, with a best finish of T23rd, before returning to the Challenge Tour. He picked up his second victory at that level in 2011.
