Johnstone hoping to honor late mother

[truebluefan]

Tony Johnstone returns to the country where he claimed his first European Tour title on a new emotional journey as he seeks to win a third European Senior Tour title in honour of his late mother at the Belas Clube de Campo Senior Open de Portugal this week.

The Zimbabwean’s mother passed away last week and having been at her side, Johnstone is now more determined than ever to add to his trophy haul at Belas Clube de Campo, just outside Lisbon, in memory of her.

“I flew back to Durban to see my mother and I got to spend five days with her before she passed away. There was a lot said and we got to say everything we wanted to say to each other,” explained Johnstone.

“That was very nice to be able to do that and now I feel I have something to prove this week. I promised I’d win one for her and maybe the time is now.

“It wasn’t a difficult decision to come out here this week. I was always going to come out but I’m even more determined now to get another win for my mother.”
