30 Golfers set to earn 2024 PGA Tour cards at 2023 Korn Ferry Tour Championship
The ongoing Korn Ferry Tour Championship has 30 PGA Tour cards up for grabs when the Championship concludes on Sunday, October 8. The top 16 golfers on the points list have mathematically secured their cards, while 14 spots are still open.
The Korn Ferry Tour Championship started on Thursday, October 5, at Victoria National Golf Club in Newburgh, Indiana. Seventy-three players are competing in this year's Championship, each of them having a chance to finish inside the top 30 of the points list.
The golfer topping the Korn Ferry Tour Points List will be exempt from the full 2024 PGA Tour schedule. Additionally, they will earn spots in the upcoming Players Championship and the US Open. The remaining 29 will also earn PGA Tour cards as 'Korn Ferry Tour graduates,' but without the other two perks.
Players finishing outside the top 30 will still have a chance to earn five cards via the PGA Tour Q-School route. Players finishing between No. 31 and No. 60 will enter the Final Stage of Qualifying School, while finishers ranked Nos. 61-75 will head directly to the Second Stage of Q-School.
