  • In the final round, Luck was 2-over par after 11 holes, but he birdied the par-4 15th and 16th, then parred the final two holes
  • Cameron Young’s T2 capped a four-tournament stretch which earned him Special Temporary Membership; he began the season without status and Monday qualified into the 2020 Pinnacle Bank Championship presented by Aetna, earned Special Temporary Membership, and finished 19th in the 2020-21 Korn Ferry Tour regular season points standings to earn a PGA TOUR card
