Wford’s Quade Cummins delivered another stellar performance on the Korn Ferry Tour, finishing tied for 5th at the Club at Indian Creek in Omaha, NE. Cummins shot rounds of 69-66-70-68 to close at 11 under par, just three strokes behind the winner, Matt McCarty.
Cummins’ impressive finish included birdies on three of his last four holes, pushing him into a tie for 5th place. This result moves Quade up two spots to 8th on the season-long points list, putting him in a strong position for the upcoming Korn Ferry Tour finals. With two regular-season events remaining, Cummins just needs to stay within the top 30 to secure his PGA Tour card for the next season.
