Peter Fowler will play the first European Senior Tour event of 2012 in Mallorca, Spain
Peter Fowler is gearing up to defend the John Jacobs Trophy at the Mallorca Open Senior, the first European Senior Tour event of the current year.
The tour opening tournament is scheduled from May 11 to 13, at the p**a Golf Club, Son Servera, in Mallorca, Spain.
In December 2011, Fowler lifted the John Jacobs Trophy, after winning the European Senior Tour Order of Merit in an impressive style.
He recorded a 7th position in the MCB Tour Championship, scoring a 2-under 214 in the three-day tournament.
“I’ve played pretty solid and pretty consistent this year and been in there most weeks,” Fowler said after winning the trophy.
“I still feel I have room for improvement though. There’s a lot of good players out here who I’m still learning from –Sam Torrance, Carl Mason and Ian Woosnam – they play so well and I have to pick the bits of their game and add them to mine”.
He added:
“After the struggles that I’ve had over the years this really does mean a lot to me. It’s great to beat all of these great champions on the Senior Tour”.
Now, he is hoping to be back on the European Senior Tour events, in order to defend his title for the current year as well.
Since January, Fowler has been playing at the PGA Tour of Australasia, and is now moving to record some more impressive finishes in European countries.
The 52-year-old Australian professional golf player is in the field for the Mallorca Open Senior. He has planned to be more impressive in the coming week, with a desire to record amazing scores.
On the other hand, Fowler also wanted to be like Sam Torrance, who recorded five tremendous wins in 2006 at the Sharp Italian Seniors Open, AIB Irish Seniors Open, PGA Seniors Championship and Scottish Seniors Open.
Torrance also won the title of the Hassan II Golf Trophy in 2006, and was the most successful seniour golf player throughout the year.
Fowler's expectations to be like Torrance are solid. If he does his best, he can finish on the top of the Mallorca Open Senior and at other European Senior Tour events in 2012.
