Former Ohio State golfer Neal Shipley moved a step closer to earning his PGA Tour playing card with a dramatic win at The Ascendent on the Korn Ferry Tour. The tournament was played at TPC Colorado in Berthoud, Colo.
Shipley, 24, earned his second Korn Ferry win this year following a win at the LECOM Suncoast Classic in April. He won that championship in a playoff.
Any Korn Ferry player who wins three tournaments in a season earns an immediate promotion to the PGA Tour for the rest of that season as well as the following year.
