Q School beckons as pressure game costs Higgins

Kerry’s David Higgins has admitted the pressure in attempting to retain his European Tour card cost him dearly in the last month.

Higgins finished 56th in the Perth International on Sunday and missed out on making the top-110 who earn automatic membership next season.

“I’m sitting here in the players, lounge in Perth and needless to say I’m very disappointed,” he wrote on golfcentraldaily.com, after ending the season ranked 115th.
