Neither Aaron Baddeley nor Jason Scrivener was able to take advantage of one last chance to earn PGA Tour playing rights for next season, the pair unable to advance their cause over the weekend at the final event of the season on the Korn Ferry Tour, the Korn Ferry Tour Championship.
Baddeley and Scrivener were the only two Australians to make the cut at the weekend with Min Woo Lee, Anthony Quayle and Harrison Endycott missing out but fortunately for Endicott he had already earned PGA Tour status via the regular season on the Korn Ferry Tour.
Baddeley and Scrivener needed something special over the weekend if they were to force their way into the top 25 money earners from the three event Korn Ferry Tour Final series, but were unable improve their standing and will now be forced to play the Korn Ferry Tour in 2023 if they so choose.
Baddeley, because of his twenty year history playing the PGA and Korn Ferry Tours, will have access to a few PGA Tour events but for Scrivener he will likely head back to Europe where he has been increasingly successful over the last few years.
Lee and Quayle will likely play the DP World Tour and Japan Tours respectively
So Endycott is the only Australian to gain status via the Korn Ferry Tour process in 2022, the former successful Australian Eisenhower Team representative now on the big stage next season.
