Entering this week’s TPC San Antonio Challenge at the Canyons, David Lipsky sat in 82nd on the Korn Ferry Tour points list.
After rounds of 69-66-62-66 at TPC San Antonio, Lipsky won the event by four shots and rocketed to No. 11 on the Korn Ferry Tour’s list.
Lipsky carried the same momentum from the third round — in which he led by one shot — to his final round Sunday morning, carding three birdies on the front nine. The 31-year-old carded seven birdies total, including one on his 72nd hole, and one bogey Sunday to earn his first Korn Ferry Tour win.
The former Northwestern golfer joined the Korn Ferry Tour in 2013 and has won two international events as a professional: the 2012 Handa Faldo Cambodian Classic and the 2014 Omega European Masters.
