Ten players earn Korn Ferry Tour cards on Sunday, including a dominant No. 1

Ten players received their 2025 Korn Ferry Tour cards on Sunday following the PGA Tour of Americas season finale.

The front-runner was Johnny Keefer, who turned pro at Baylor earlier this summer. Keefer went on to post eight top-5 finishes, including one win and four second-place finishes, to secure full exempt status on the KFT next season.

The other nine players who were granted an exemption were, in order: Frederick Kjettrup, Matthew Anderson, Barend Botha, Clay Feagler, Will Cannon, Harry Hillier, Sandy Scott, Ryan Burnett and Ian Holt. Anderson and Hillier had already secured conditional KFT status earlier this season as the top two players in the Latin American swing. All 10 players are also exempted into the final phase of PGA Tour Q-School, where they can compete for PGA Tour cards.

Cannon, Scott and Holt finished in the top 10 in points at the Fortinet Cup Championship in Caledon, Ontario.

Cannon edged out Scott by one stroke for the title after closing with a 1-under 69. It was the 30-year-old UAB product’s first PGA Tour-sanctioned victory. Cannon played two seasons on the KFT, in 2019 and 2020-21, before losing his card. According to Monday Q InfoCannon retired from professional golf a few years ago to take a job in a warehouse because he ran out of money. A sponsor supported him this year to give his golf career another shot. Former professional golfer Willy Wilcox also revealed that Cannon’s father, John, terminally ill with cancer.
