Last week, both the European and UK Q-School were completed. One of the players who managed to capture a Tour Card was Dutchman Richard Veenstra.

Veenstra did not become a day winner, but finished first in the European Q-School rankings and thus captured a Tour Card. 'Flyers' won no less than 20 matches at Q-School this year, as many as Graham Usher and Ricardo Perez. For the latter, however, that was not enough to capture a Tour Card, the Spaniard finished 20th in the Q-School rankings.
Klose
Three players won even more matches and all three also captured a Tour Card. German Daniel Klose tops the list with 22 wins, followed by Robbie Knops and Graham Hall with 21.
