Justin Lower failed to get his first PGA Tour win Sunday, but he can still take a silver lining from his week in Mexico.

The 35-year-old, in his third full season on Tour, held the World Wide Technology Championship's 54-hole lead, but finished T-2, two strokes behind winner Austin Eckroat. Lower likely secured his card for next season, moving from No. 95 to 74 in the FedExCup standings, with the top 125 receiving full status for 2025. With two events left this season, Lower could move into the top 60 and get into the Pebble Beach Pro-Am and Genesis Invitational.
