Peyton White eager to continue Korn Ferry Tour run
Peyton White looks to continue his top-25 run at the MGM Resorts Championship at Paiute. (PGA TOUR) Peyton White was all signed up for this week’s Monday qualifier for a spot in the MGM Resorts Championship at Paiute as the second of a planned six-week run of Monday qualifiers, but he didn’t end up needing it. Instead, he has a guaranteed spot in the field this week after finishing in the top-25 at the Emerald Coast Classic at Sandestin after weekend rounds of 67-66 for a T15 finish. “It’s huge,” he said. “Going into the weekend in Destin I was in 39th, so I knew I had some work to do. Put together a pretty good round on Saturday and to be able to finish it off on Sunday and be able to get that top-25 was nice, especially to do it with some room to spare.”
