Golf: Frankie Capan III finishes 64th at PGA Tour Q-School, will return to Korn Ferry Tour
A year after a magical PGA Tour Q-School run elevated Frankie Capan III from no status to a spot on the Korn Ferry Tour, the North Oaks native finished in a tie for 64th in the final stage of the Q-School for 2024 after a 1-over round of 71 on Monday at Dye’s Valley Course in Florida to finish 2-over for the week.
The top five golfers earned PGA Tour cards. Those went to Harrison Endycott — the Q-School champion at 15-under par — Trace Crowe, Blaine Hale Jr., Raul Pereda and Hayden Springer. Pereda and Springer nabbed the final two cards with 8-under par finishes.
Capan entered the week in a bit of an all-or-nothing position. His strong rookie season on the Korn Ferry Tour secured himself a spot back on the primary PGA Tour feeder tour in 2024, at minimum. So anything outside of a top-five finish this week was largely moot.
The 2024 Korn Ferry Tour schedule opens in mid-January, with consecutive events played in the Bahamas.
Wayzata grad Van Holmgren finished the week at 3-over par, good for a finish in a tie for 72nd. There will again be no Minnesota natives playing full time on the PGA Tour to open next season.
