AUBURN, Ala. - Former Auburn All-American Blayne Barber earned his 2015 PGA Tour card by finishing seventh on the Web.com Tour earning $269,111 this year..
Barber, who broke the 36-year-old Auburn scoring record with a 70.76 average as a junior in 2011-12, was an All-American first-team selection at Auburn in 2012 and a second-team pick in both 2009 and 2011.
"I am very thankful and excited and looking forward to what the future holds," said Barber. "I have been dreaming about this a long time, so it is exciting."
Barber, who disqualified himself two years ago at PGA Tour Q-School, earned his first Tour card behind a strong season with a win at the South Georgia Classic and four top 10 finishes. He made two of three cuts on the PGA Tour in 2013, including finishing 24th at the Puerto Rico Open.
A 2012 Auburn graduate in Finance, Barber, who now lives in Auburn, represented the United States at both the 2011 Walker and Palmer Cups.
