The 23-year-old is currently taking part in the NSW PGA at Riverside Oaks Golf Resort, having pre qualified for the event on Monday.

But he says it’s a matter of getting results if he is to retain his professional card.

“I’ve just to go out and give it a good crack, he told the Post on Wednesday.

“One good round and you never know what might happen.”

Humphries is coming off the back of a relatively successful stint in Australia’s West where he took part in both the Western Australian Open in Perth and the Western Australia PGA in Kalgoorlie.

Despite finishing 34th in the Open, Humphries was in the thick of the action, placing 12th at the PGA event.

“I was playing pretty good golf and up until I went three over in the last round I was in contention the whole week,” he said.

“I just have to play consistently. Unfortunately the weather isn’t meant to be the best the next few days, and it’s hard to maintain a good run when it’s stop, start.”

When the NSW PGA wraps up on Sunday, Humphries will jet north to Brisbane early the next morning where he hopes he can qualify for the Australian PGA that begins at the Gold Coast’s Royal Pines next Thursday.

But results are what will dictate his future plans.

“A good result and I could finish top 100 in the Order of Merit. That means I’ll automatically go to the final stage of tour school,” he said.

“If you win (the NSW PGA), it’s automatic inclusion for two years. Ultimately that’s what you’re after.”

His father, Rod Humphries, says it’s been a tough learning curve as a first year pro golfer, but he believes his son can overcome the difficulties.

“He’s very positive and he loves it,” Mr Humphries said. “He wouldn’t do anything else.”
