Peter Mitchell (golfer)

Peter Robert Mitchell (born 6 April 1958) is an English professional golfer.

He turned professional at an early age in 1974, working in a club job before embarking on a tournament career several years later.

In the early years he had difficulties holding on to his tour card, but in the thirteen-year stretch from 1988 to 2000 he finished in the top eighty of the European Tour Order of Merit every season, with a highest ranking of 12th in 1996.

Upon turning 50 in 2008, Mitchell joined the European Seniors Tour.

*Note: The 1997 Madeira Island Open was shortened to 54 holes due to weather.
