There’s just 36 holes left for some to lock up their 2025 PGA Tour cards.
Through two rounds of the season-ending Korn Ferry Tour Championship, 29 of the 30 golfers on the good side of the line have held on.
“Bubble Boy” Sam Bennett, who started the week in the 30th and final spot, is the one golfer who has fallen out, for now.
Bennett opened with a 72 but his second-round 3-over 75 has put him in a precarious position.
Meanwhile, Zach Bauchou is taking full advantage of this week’s 72-hole, no-cut event at French Lick Golf Resort’s Pete Dye Course in Indiana. Bauchou has posted scores of 68 and 66 and is at 10 under, the only golfer at double-digits under par, and he leads the field by four shots.
Bauchou started the week in the 35th spot, on the outside looking in, but he’s now in the 13th spot, well inside the safe zone for that coveted tour card.
When the week started, 17 of the 30 cards were claimed and the next five were virtually assured of staying in the top 30. That left eight spots up for grabs.
After 15 seasons of 25 players getting a promotion, this year it’s 30 getting their cards. When the Korn Ferry Tour started in 1990, only the top five players earned their cards.
The French Lick Golf Resort’s Pete Dye Course is a par-72 measuring 7,667 yards. It’s hosted the KFT finale for the first time.
