Davis Riley is now one step away from the PGA Tour.
The former Alabama star won the Korn Ferry Tour’s TPC San Antonio Championship on Saturday, making birdie on three of his last four holes for a closing 67 and a two-shot win over Taylor Pendrith and Paul Barjon.
The victory is Riley’s second of the season, sending him to the top of the Korn Ferry Tour points standings. Even more importantly: He’s now one title away from an instant promotion to the PGA Tour.
Riley, 23, was thought to be one of the players most significantly impacted by the PGA Tour’s decision not to have any promotion or relegation this season because of the coronavirus pandemic.
