Chapman following Emerson's footsteps

Veteran Roger Chapman is hoping he can cash in on some good omens and regain his European Tour card at the Cadillac Russian Open by following in the footsteps of last year’s winner Gary Emerson.

Chapman, 46, lost his card last year – as did Emerson the previous season - and he has also just started working with ‘mind magician’ Jamil Qureshi, as had Emerson just over 12 months ago.
