Buysse was the youngest of three brother who competed in the Tour de France. He won the first stage of 1926 Tour de France by 13 minutes and 6 seconds, allowing him to wear the yellow jersey for two days[1] until losing it to fellow Belgian Gustave Van Slembrouck. He finished the tour in 9th place.[2]

His brothers were Lucien Buysse, who won the 1926 Tour de France, and Marcel Buysse who won six stages on the 1913 Tour.
