Returns to the competitive game after more than a decade away when he becomes eligible for the Senior Tour in February 2012.

Joined the paid ranks in 1983 but did not gain his European Tour card until 1987.

His best year was in 1990 when he won his only two European Tour titles, the Atlantic Open and the KLM Dutch Open, and finished 19th on the Order of Merit.

The Scot’s Tour days came to an end in 2000 and he went on to work as a golf coach and corporate golf manager at Mearns Castle Golf Academy, near Glasgow. More recently he took on the younger players on the Tartan Tour to prepare for life as a Senior golfer.
