PGA Tour University’s second class sends 15 college players on path to professional golf

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — School’s out for the seniors. Next stop: professional golf.

The second class of PGA Tour University graduates was finalized following the completion of stroke play at the 2022 NCAA Div. I Men’s Golf Championship at Grayhawk Golf Club, with the top 15 players in the standings earning status on varying professional tours.

The top-five players in the PGA Tour University standings receive Korn Ferry Tour membership and will be exempt into all open, full-field events beginning with the BMW Charity Pro-Am presented by TD SYNNEX (June 9-12). The players are also exempt into the final stage of the Korn Ferry Tour Qualifying Tournament.

The following players who finished 6-15 in the standings receive PGA Tour Canada status beginning with the ATB Classic presented by Volvo Edmonton (June 16-19) through the end of the regular season. The players are also exempt into the second stage of the Korn Ferry Tour Qualifying Tournament.

The program is designed to streamline the process for college players to advance to the professional level while also rewarding those who honor their college commitments. Players must play on the NCAA Division I level and complete a minimum of four years in college to be eligible for PGA Tour University.
