Lebioda Improves PGA TOUR status for 2019/2020 Season
Mission Accomplished. Hank Lebioda headed to the three-week Korn Ferry Tour finals to improve his status for the 2019/2020 PGA TOUR schedule. which will be Hank’s sophomore season.
In his rookie campaign on the PGA TOUR, Hank finished 148th in the Fed Ex Cup. Hank played 23 events, making 15 cuts which were highlighted by three Top 25 finishes and a 5th place at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans. The finish in the Fed Ex Cup provided Hank with conditional status for the 2019/2020 season which would most likely provide Lebioda with between 12 and 17 starts.
In an effort to improve that status, Hank headed to the Korn Ferry Tour Playoff series where the Top 25 in the series earn their PGA TOUR cards for the following year. After missing the cut at the first event in Columbus, Ohio, Hank rattled off 11th and 19th place finishes in Boise, Idaho and the Tour Championship in Evansville, Indiana to finish 19th in the Playoffs and secure his card again for his sophomore campaign.
Hank will start the 2019/2020 season next week at the Greenbrier Classic, followed by the Sanderson Farms Championship in Mississippi and the Safeway Open in Napa, California.
