Fowler, Harwood primed for big finish


Peter Fowler and Mike Harwood are primed
for a big finish to the European Senior Tour season in Mauritius this week.

Peter Fowler and Mike Harwood are primed
for a big finish to the European Senior Tour season in Mauritius this week.

""Fowler, the leading Australian on the Order
of Merit for each of the past five years, is once again in prime position to
claim top Australian honours with a nearly €45,000 lead over Harwood.

At fourth on the standings, Fowler could
feasibly move to third with a victory at the MCB Tour Championship this week
though trails second placed Magnus Atlevi by more than €75,000, more than the
winner’s share this week.

Harwood currently sits 13th in the
standings after what has been a good year in Europe.

Back to back top-5 finishes in August,
including a runner-up result at the Willow Senior Golf Classic in England,
contributed significantly to his €89,010 in earnings, his most lucrative year
since 2013.

Harwood has a best finish of T8 at this
event, that result coming in 2010, while Fowler was T2 in 2011 to go with two
other top-10s in six starts.

The MCB Tour Championship is the final
event of the year for the European Seniors.
