Nick Mitchell, finished tied 17th in the European Senior Tour School Qualifying at The Pinta Golf Resort in Portugal. The top 14 players and ties gained a European Senior Tour card for 2013, but due to 4 players being under 50 years of age, the card went down to 18th place, giving Nick a category 10 card for 2013.
Nick qualified at stage 1 at Silves golf club, with rounds of 73+71 in appalling weather, and followed that with his rounds at Pinta golf club of 70+74+72+69.
He also played in the Algarvian Seniors championship at Pinheros Altos golf club where numerous current tour players competed including the Senior PGA champion and went on to finish 17th.
The schedule for the 2013 Seniors European Tour will be released in two weeks time, where Nick is hoping to get into a few events on the Seniors Tour coupled with some regional events and some events on the senior-golf-circuit.
