There are 30 golfers who will earn PGA Tour cards for the 2025 season via the Korn Ferry Tour but 13 of them have already been locked up. That puts 17 up for grabs with the three-event playoff series left on the calendar.
The first of those is this week’s Simmons Bank Open for the Snedeker Foundation at the Vanderbilt Legends Club North Course in Franklin, Tennessee.
There are 144 players in the field and just like the PGA Tour’s FedEx Cup Playoffs, the field will get whittled down for the second event, the Nationwide Children’s Hospital Championship, which will have 120. From there, just the top 75 will head to the Korn Ferry Tour Championship.
Of the 13 players who earned their card from next year after 23 events are eight soon-to-be rookies:
- Quade Cummins
- Cristobal Del Solar
- Taylor Dickson
- Steven Fisk
- Matt McCarty
- William Mouw
- Kevin Velo
- Tim Widing
The other five have regained their PGA Tour status:
- Brian Campbell
- Ryan Gerard
- Harry Higgs
- Max McGreevy
- Kevin Roy
Campbell will be returning to the PGA Tour for the first time since 2017.
Whoever finishes atop the season-points race earns a spot in the 2025 U.S. Open as well as the 2025 Players Championship.
Golf Channel will have coverage of all three KFT playoff tournaments.
