    He has an exemption to the final stage at the end of this month

    :confused: He's currently 124th on the R2D rankings, only the top 60 after the BMW Masters (this week) get to play in the World Tour Championship in Dubai at the end of the month - there are no exemptions or invitations, you're either in (the top 60) or not.

    There is one remaining way for him to get to Dubai and that's by playing in and finishing well up the leaderboard in the BMW Masters this week but he would only get playing with an invitation as he's way too far down the R2D rankings to get in on merit - they have currently filled three of the four available invitation slots: Justin Rose, Paul McGinley and John Daly (USA) are listed so there's one slot to be filled.

    Final stage of Q School.

    Yes, I was referring to the final stage of qualifying school, the post directly before mine asked the question regarding that

    Missed that, the page break and 15 day gap between the question and your post threw me!

    He only missed out by one stroke last year, so here's hoping he can make it.

    Suspect it will be like previous qualifying rounds where scores just posted after they finish. Doubt we'll get hole by hole updates. Nothing on ET website except tee times.
    Unless someone posts news on Twitter or Facebook I'd say we just have to wait.

    Updating is slow, but better than nothing.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,075 ✭✭✭✭vienne86


    +4 for Peter today. I would say that that seems to be that.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,737 ✭✭✭abff


    He's 10 over after 12 holes today and in last place on 13 over. Difficult to see where he can go from here, but I guess his Category 16 membership would get him a few starts next season.

    Better Category than last season I suppose although with Sponsors invites he was practically on a full card.

    He had lots of chances to get himself a card for this season. He's +13 for today. Very hard to figure out what is going on with him.

    He wasn't happy with a drop he took according to reports. Could be another way of saying get me to hell out of here :cool:

    Quote from interview.

    "I won't give up," said Lawrie, who expects to get around 22 starts next year - having finishing 124th in the Race to Dubai - on the back of receiving some 17 sponsors' invitations.

    "I have never been a giver-upper, so I will carry on and I will play next year though apart from the Irish Open, I won't be seeking invites. I have had my fair share and it's time for somebody else to get them."

    Fair enough - he got a great lot of invites this year.

    Alfred Dunhill Championship in South Africa.

    Peter began the first event of the 2016 season hoping for a change in his fortunes but after opening with a triple bogey seven and a 79 on Thursday, he didn’t tee it up in round two due to food poisoning.
    That brought a disappointing year to an end, even though it marked the start of the new European Tour season.
    Peter failed to win back his full card at Q-School and while he’ll still get around 20 starts next season as he's got the same category as Phelan and Ruaidhri McGee) for 2016 despite missing out at PGA Catalunya

    Thanks for that - unfortunate start to the season.

    That's very disappointing. He just can't seem to get it together. I wonder is it time to retire.

    Finished +12...last year he looked promising in several early season tournaments especially on the Thursday and Friday, seemed to fall away over the weekend but this year has got off to an awful start.Missing the cut by around 9 shots really must destroy your confidence

    Bad day all round for the Irish boys. Phelan blew it after getting into a good position and will miss by one. McGee withdrew.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,075 ✭✭✭✭vienne86


    Very disappointing week for the Irish in South Africa - at least we have plenty of interest in the PGA tour this week.
