North Oaks’ Frankie Capan III wraps Korn Ferry Tour season with another top-five finish. Next stop: The PGA Tour
Frankie Capan III finished his Korn Ferry Tour season in style, finishing in a tie for fifth at the Korn Ferry Tour Championship at French Lick Golf Resort in Indiana.
Capan carded a 1-under round of 71 on Sunday, shooting 4-under on the back nine after a rough start to his final round. The North Oaks native tallied three top-five finishes over his final five starts of the season, including a win at the Nationwide Children’s Hospital Championship two weeks ago.
Capan got to participate in the post-tournament festivities on Sunday honoring the top 30 finishers on the season-long points list, all of whom earned a promotion to the PGA Tour next season. Capan finished third on that season-long list this season, which will help him earn starts on the top pro tour in men’s golf next season.
Capan earned $744,423 on the golf course this season. The 24-year-old’s next start will likely come Jan. 9 at the Sony Open in Hawaii, his first time teeing it up as a PGA Tour member.
