Harrison Endycott has kept alive his flickering hopes of retaining his full PGA Tour status with a spirited start to the RSM Classic in Georgia.
Endycott birdied the last two holes to eke out a one-under-par 71 in the first round at the weather-hit tournament on Sea Island.
Languishing in 140th position on the season-long points standing entering the final event of FedExCup Fall series, Endycott needs to drag himself into the top 125 to keep his full PGA Tour card.
