SAVANNAH, Ga. – Auburn men's golf alums Andrew Kozan and Blayne Barber earned their Korn Ferry Tour cards after stellar performances in the final stage of Qualifying School, which wrapped up Monday afternoon.
Kozan, a spring 2021 graduate, blistered through his four rounds of play, shooting 13-under-par (73, 67, 63, 66 - 269) to finish tied for second place. The former All-SEC selection birdied six times in round four, making a total of 23 birdies, to seal his spot and cruise onto his first career tour.
Barber became the second former Tiger to earn his card wrapping up Monday's action at 3-under for the tournament (67, 73, 68, 71 – 279). Barber, a 2012 graduate and current volunteer assistant coach for Auburn, knocked down 18 birdies and finished tied for 19th overall to make the cut. He played on the Korn Ferry Tour last year and had three top 10 finishes.
The current Tiger team will return from their winter hiatus Feb. 3 - 5, 2022, at the Amer Ari Invitational in Waikoloa, Hawaii.
