Russell Knox might try European

Tour School next year

By COLIN FARQUHARSON
Florida-based Russell Knox from Inverness has told Scottishgolfview.com in an E-mail today - following his failure to progress past Stage 2 of the US PGA Tour Qualifying School that he might consider having a go at the European Tour Qualifying School process next year.
Here's Russell's note:

"(Failing to get past Stage 2 of the US Tour School is) Very disappointing finish to another successful year. My downfall this time was my wedges and putter. Usually the best part of my game too.
"Just couldn't get the ball in the hole. Short misses and on a hard course it's hard to recover from three putts.
"Obviously feeling a little bit low right now but just wasn't my time i guess

"Looking forward to some time off golf. Been a long year and I feel tired now.
Hopefully 2011 will be the year I break through.
This was my fourth year going to the US Tour Q School; third straight to get as far as Stage 2 - and I have still to get to Final School. I hate golf! So many highs and lows.
"Pretty sure i might try the European Tour Q School next year as well as having another go at the US Tour one as well. Just a thought but a year to commit."
