The Mortonhall course-record holder is in his second season as a touring pro and has devised a variety of ways to fund his campaign. It will involve a combination of events on three circuits around the world – the MENA (Middle East and North Africa) Tour, the Asian Development Tour and the PGA EuroPro Tour. “I have gathered some great international experience that I hope will stand me in good stead for my target of a significant step up the golfing ladder in 2013.” To try and help achieve that, Nicolson has launched a new share scheme and also organised a golf day at Mortonhall, where he cut his teeth in the game. The event is being held on Friday, May 10, when it will cost £150 for a team of three to take part in a Texas Scramble, with 20 per cent of all proceeds being donated to MacMillan Cancer Support. “With the rising expense of touring, I need to raise funds to support my golfing dream and I hope to do this via a range of opportunities,” he said.
