Sydney golfer Harrison Endycott’s share of 5th place in the Korn Ferry Tour’s event in Utah, might have been only his third top ten in 17 starts on that tour in 2022, but very importantly for the 26 year old his finish has consolidated his standing inside the top 25 players in 2022 and will all but assure him of a first PGA Tour card next season.
The leading 25 players not only earn their PGA Tour cards but they will also get their chance to improve their standing via the three event playoff series beginning on August 18th.
First, however, there is one more hurdle to jump at the final event of the regular season next week in Omaha but improving to 19th in the standing, it appears the job is all but done for Endycott who has battled away on the South American and Korn Ferry Tours since turning professional in 2017.
A member of the Eisenhower winning trophy in 2016, Endycott’s only win in the professional ranks came when successful earlier this season on the Korn Ferry Tour setting up this opportunity to advance to the PGA Tour.
The volatile nature of the projected standings would mean that two late birdies were crucial to Endycott’s cause today and his round of 67 added to his round of 63 on Saturday completed an outstanding and important weekend in his golfing career.
The only other Australian inside the top 100 as they head into next week’s season ending event is another member of the winning Eisenhower side in 2016, Curtis Luck, who is currently 95th and will need something special to ensure he has at least a chance of graduating to the Finals by forcing his way inside the top 75.
