Stephen Browne says enough is enough:
He's going back to being a banker

One-time European individual amateur champion, Irishman Stephen Browne has decided he has played his last tournament as a professional. He is to return to his original career in banking and will be seeking reinstatement as an amateur golfer.
Browne, who is 35, won twice on the European Challenge Tour after turning pro in 2002.
This year, he won just 15,150 Euros in 20 tournaments on the Challenge Tour, bringing his prize money for the past seven seasons to €303,071. He held a full European Tour card in 2005 and 2006.
The fact that Browne and his wife Elaine are expecting their first child also played a big part in his decision to walk away from pro golf.
