Senior 2nd in Race for Charles Schwab Cup

Peter Senior has missed out on joining Fred Couples and John Cook in a playoff for the Senior Players Championship by just one shot. Senior's final round 71 at Westchester Country Club was not quite enough to secure his first Champions Tour Major but was good enough for outright 3rd place and a nice cheque for US$194,400.00. Pete's record in the Senior Major's this year has been most impressive, finishing inside the top 6 in four of the five Major Championships.

Senior might not have closed out the victory at Westchester, however the 3rd place finish secured him enough points to charge up to 2nd place in the Charles Schwab Cup standings. The winner of the Charles Schwab Cup at the end of the season will walk away with a US$1million bonus.

Well done Pete on another great effort!

Senior One Shot Behind Couples

Peter Senior has birdied his last 2 holes in the 3rd round of the Constellation Energy Senior Players Championship to put himself in a great position to win his first Champions Tour Major on Sunday. Senior has fired rounds of 66,68,69 for a 10-under par total and is just one shot off the lead being held by American Presidents Cup captain Fred Couples.

The final round proves to be a great battle, with the top of the leaderboard filled with former PGA Tour winners such as John Cook, Corey Pavin, Tom Lehman, Mark Calcavecchia and Mark O'Meara. All players will be chasing the double points on offer this week for the Charles Schwab Cup standings. Best of luck Pete!
