Martin Wiegele (born 11 July 1978) is a Austrian professional golfer.
Wiegele was born in Graz. He turned professional in 2003 when he joined the second tier Challenge Tour. He enjoyed some success during his first season finishing fourth on the end of season rankings to graduate to the top level European Tour for 2004. He struggled for form during the next few seasons, before picking up his first victory at the 2007 Lexus Open. He went on to win the European Tour Qualifying School at the end of the season to regain his place at the top level.
Having finished 142nd on the Order of Merit in 2008, Wiegele returned to the Challenge Tour in 2009. He picked up his second tournament victory on the Challenge Tour in 2010 at the Kärnten Golf Open, before winning the dual ranking Saint-Omer Open two weeks later which gave him a one year exemption on the European Tour.[1]
