COLUMBUS, Ohio – Texas A&M men's golf All-American Chandler Phillips '19 locked in a PGA TOUR card for the 2024 season, the first of his career, following his performance at the National Children's Hospital Championship over the weekend.
Â
Phillips clinched a spot on the PGA TOUR next year with his seventh-place finish at the Ohio State University Golf Club Scarlet Course, firing a 3-under 281 at the tournament (66-72-69-74). The effort moved Phillips to 13th on the Korn Ferry Tour points list with one event remaining on the schedule. The top 30 players on the list earn a full PGA TOUR membership for the following season.
Â
The native of Huntsville, Texas, opened the year with his first career Korn Ferry Tour victory. He tamed the par-72, 7,001-yard Sandals Emerald Bay Golf Club course with a 14-under 74 to claim the Bahamas Great Exuma Classic. He was the only golfer to post sub-70 scores all four rounds and made up four strokes on the final day to win by two strokes.
Â
One of the nation's best collegians during his time in Aggieland, Phillips earned PING All-America recognition on three occasions, including First Team in 2018 and Second Team in 2017 and 2019. He landed All-SEC First Team accolades his last three seasons and All-SEC Second Team distinction as a freshman.
