Glasgow golfer Marc Warren is already looking towards next year’s Majors as he returns to action on the European Tour this week.

The 34-year-old begins the defence of his Made in Denmark title on Thursday having travelled back across the Atlantic after contesting all four rounds of the US PGA Championship at Whistling Straits

That was the final Major of the 2015 campaign and the next one will not be until the Masters in eight months time.

Warren is Scotland’s highest ranked male golfer at No 50 in the world and the Scot is eager to preserve that status over the next few months and earn a Masters debut.

He said: “The only Major I haven’t contested is the Masters and if I can keep playing as well as this when I get back to Europe, starting with my defence of the Made in Denmark title, then hopefully I will know about Christmas time that I could be playing in all four Majors next season.”

Warren’s victory in Denmark last season was his first European Tour win for seven years and the former Walker Cup star is relishing the prospect of a return to this happy hunting ground.

Warren, who held off Welshman Bradley Dredge to take the honours at Himmerland Golf Club, will begin his challenge in the company of reigning Irish Open champ Soren Kjeldsen and former European No 1 Robert Karlsson.

Meanwhile, Glasgow teenager Calum Fyfe has earned a call up to the Great Britain & Ireland side for the Jacques Leglise Trophy match with the Continent of Europe at Dornoch later this month.

The Cawder ace, who was part of the Scotland team that won the Boys’ Home Internationals recently, is one of two Scots in the nine-man GB&I squad which is skippered by former Walker Cup-winning captain Peter McEvoy.
