Sang-moon Bae and Seung-taek Lee have advanced to the final stage of the PGA Tour Qualifying (Q) School.

Apology Statement

On the 7th (local time), Sang-moon Bae exchanged five birdies and five bogeys in the final 4th round of the second stage of Q School held at Valencia CC (par 72, 7,300 yards) in Valencia, California, USA. He finished tied for 6th place (10-under 278), securing a ticket to the PGA Tour Q School final, which is awarded to the top 15 players in this tournament. Bae won once each on the PGA Tour in 2013 and 2014. However, this year he only participated in six PGA Tour events, with his best result being a tie for 37th at the ProCore Championship last September.

Lee Seung-taek

Seung-taek Lee also finished tied for 14th place (7-under 281), earning a spot in the PGA Tour Q School final. He claimed victory at the KPGA Tour Lexus Masters in September. After the Golfzon-Doray Open in the same month, he ranked 5th in the Genesis Points, qualifying him to compete in the second stage of the PGA Tour Q School. Through the KPGA Tour, he expressed his determination for the final stage, saying, "Only the final stage remains now, and the stage I've dreamed of is right in front of me. If I prepare calmly and thoroughly, I believe I can demonstrate competitiveness."

The PGA Tour Q School final will be held over four days starting from the 12th at TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida, USA. This year’s KPGA Tour Genesis Award winner, Yu-bin Jang, has also advanced to the Q School final. The top five players in the final will earn the right to compete in the 2025 PGA Tour season. Those finishing in the top 40 will play on the Korn Ferry (second-tier) Tour thereafter.
