Kevin Yu finished T2 at last week’s Price Cutter Charity Championship presented by Dr Pepper and improved to No. 18 on the points list with just two regular season events remaining. It was Yu’s third top-three finish of the season, and he is on the brink of joining Davis Thompson and Trevor Werbylo as Korn Ferry Tour graduates.

Also finishing in the top-10 last week was Austin Eckroat, who tied for eighth and extended his streak to 32 consecutive rounds of par or better. Starting with the AdventHealth Championship in May, Eckroat has made nine straight cuts and finished in the top-25 eight times, including top-10s in his last two starts.

Pierceson Coody remains the highest-ranked Class of 2022 player at No. 32, while Mac Meissner (No. 49) is the sixth PGA TOUR University alum in the top-50.

Chris Gotterup rebounded from a first-round 75 and finished T31 at the 3M Open, marking his fourth made cut in six TOUR starts as a pro. He currently has 177 non-member FedExCup points, and he’ll earn a spot in Korn Ferry Tour Finals if he exceeds the 200th-place player on the official FedExCup points list at the end of the regular season. Currently, the 200th-place player has 83 points.

Gotterup will make his seventh TOUR start as a pro this week at the Rocket Mortgage Classic. He’ll be joined by Cole Hammer and Stanford rising senior Michael Thorbjornsen, who finished fourth at the Travelers Championship last month.
