Here Are the 20 Golfers Who Just Earned Their 2027 PGA Tour Cards

Twenty players earned PGA Tour cards for 2027 by finishing among the top 20 on the Korn Ferry Tour’s season-long points list, with the promotion decided at the season-ending Korn Ferry Tour Championship on Sunday. One of them is 19-year-old Brown, who becomes the youngest PGA Tour card-holder in history. The group gets a head start on the Tour’s two-track system, which debuts in a little over a year and will place players on either the top tier, the Championship Series, or the second track.

Doc Redman, the 2017 U.S. Amateur champion, is back on the PGA Tour after a brief stint on the Korn Ferry Tour. He won the Visit Knoxville Open in a playoff over Eichhorn.

Here are the 20 players, listed in order of their finish on the final points list.
