Korn Ferry Tour: Meet all 20 players to have earned PGA Tour cards for 2027

Twenty players have earned PGA Tour cards for the 2027 season after finishing inside the top 20 of the final Korn Ferry Tour Points List.

The graduating class features emerging young talents, proven winners and several experienced professionals who have fought their way back to the sport's biggest stage.

Ross Steelman finished top of the standings after recording six top-five finishes and two victories during an impressive campaign. 

His reward also includes exemptions for the 2027 Players Championship and U.S. Open.

Scotland's Sandy Scott finished second after winning the Nationwide Children's Hospital Championship and Compliance Solutions Championship in consecutive starts. 

Ian Holt also enjoyed a memorable season, claiming back-to-back victories at The Bahamas Great Abaco Classic and The Panama Championship.

However, one of the biggest stories belongs to Blades Brown, who became the youngest player in Korn Ferry Tour history to earn promotion to the PGA Tour. 

Brown recently spoke exclusively to GolfMagic ahead of locking up his PGA Tour card for 2027. 

The American was just 19 years, four months and 20 days old when he secured his card, breaking the record previously held by Jason Day.

Austin Hitt also produced a dramatic finish, winning the season-ending Korn Ferry Tour Championship presented by Virginia's Richmond Region. 

Hitt finished 20-under par and two shots clear of Brown in solo second. 

Starting the tournament 22nd in the standings, Hitt claimed victory with a final-round 66 to finish sixth in the final rankings.

Davis Lamb was another player to climb into the top 20 during the closing stages of the season.

The graduating class also includes four players returning to the PGA Tour after previous spells on the circuit. 

Meanwhile, five graduates progressed through PGA Tour University, highlighting the growing influence of the collegiate pathway.

Sixteen of the 20 players are set to make their PGA Tour rookie debuts in 2027, with the new season beginning at The American Express from January 21-24.
