Peter's best performance for 2008 was a 2nd place finish in the Senior Texas Open. He finished 1 shot behind the winner and was the only player to break par in all three rounds. With scores of 71, 70 & 71 he was one of only 3 players to finish under par from a field of 126.

In 2008 Peter played 19 tournament rounds in the USA with a stroke average of 71.65 This score average would have been well inside the top 50 of the Champions Tour. The leading score average was 69.65 from Bernard Langer while 19th place scored an average of 70.31 winning over $1m. 50th place averaged 72.36 winning $157,000.00.

 

Since deciding to play golf full time, Peter has some excellent performances to show. In 2006 he won the Irish Club Professionals Championship by 2 shots with a 6 under par total at Rathsallagh G.C.

In 2007 he finished 11th in the Irish Senior Open in his 1st European Senior Tour Event at PGA National G.C. in Ireland and was the leading Irish Player. In fact if it was not for a couple of poor holes in the last round, Peter may have been on the winners podium.

In 2008, Peter began to inroads on the Champions Tour by getting through many pre-qualifying rounds. There were 5 places to qualify at each event from up to 97 players. Peter won one event and finished in the top 5 on 7 other occasions. In fact from 12 events he was in the top 8 no fewer than 11 times and never outside 10th. The Champions Tour in 2009 has suffered from some sponsorship withdrawals, so Peter's play in the USA has been limited however he is using this "down" time to practise hard and be ready for the remainder of what is going to be a long season.
