Roberto Castro

Ranking/movement: +246 (No. 323 to No. 77)

Why the rise? Roberto Castro played the 2014-15 PGA Tour season out of the No. 125-150 category after missing full-exempt status by a stroke at the 2014 Web.com Championship.

Conditional status made for tough sledding – he earned only one Tour start during a three-month span between mid-March and mid-June – but he registered three top-10 finishes during the Web.
