Paul Ashwell, head coach at Wyboston Lakes, said “I am really excited for Jamie. This is an outstanding achievement and is a big step in our plan for him to become a successful tournament professional.”
Competition was stiff in Abbott’s qualifying event with over 1000 entrants playing for 12 chances to lift the Claret Jug, Europe’s most prestigious golfing prize. In the final stage, at Kingsbarns, Abbott shot -4 to tie for second place, taking him into a playoff, from which he was able to secure a ticket to St Andrews.
