2023 Korn Ferry Tour graduates

Last updated

This is a list of golfers who graduated from the Korn Ferry Tour in 2023. The top 30 players on the 2023 Korn Ferry Tour points list earned PGA Tour cards for 2024. [1] [2]

Contents

The structure of the Korn Ferry Tour season and qualification for the PGA Tour was changed from what had been in place from 2013 to 2022, in which 25 cards had been awarded via the Korn Ferry Tour's regular-season points list and 25 more through the Korn Ferry Tour Finals points list. Under the new format, a single points list covered the entire Korn Ferry Tour season, including the Finals, and 30 cards were awarded; ten additional cards will be awarded via the European Tour and at least five through the revived PGA Tour Qualifying Tournament.

Ben Kohles is fully exempt for the 2024 PGA Tour season after leading the points list.

The Korn Ferry Tour is the developmental tour for the U.S.-based PGA Tour, and features professional golfers who have either not yet reached the PGA Tour, or who have done so but then failed to win enough FedEx Cup points to stay at that level. Those who are on the top 30 of the money list at year's end are given PGA Tour memberships for the next season. Since the 2013 season, the Korn Ferry Tour has been the primary pathway for those seeking to earn their PGA Tour card. Q-School, which had previously been the primary route for qualification to the PGA Tour, has been converted as an entryway to the Korn Ferry Tour.

In professional golf, the term qualifying school is used for the annual qualifying tournaments for leading golf tours such as the U.S.-based PGA and LPGA Tours and the European Tour. A fixed number of players in the event win membership of the tour for the following season, otherwise known as a "tour card", meaning that they can play in most of the tour's events without having to qualify. They join the leaders on the previous year's money list/order of merit and certain other exempt players as members of the tour.
