No Seung-yeol Tied 41st "Far from Top 10"... Mullinex Victory "Revolt of World Ranking 370th"
[Asia Economy Kim Hyun-jun, Golf Specialist Reporter] "A distant top 10."
No Seung-yeol (31, photo) added 4 under par on the final day of the Barbasol Championship (total prize money $3.7 million) held on the 11th (Korean time) at the Kirtland Country Club (par 72, 7,328 yards) in Nicholasville, Kentucky, USA, finishing tied for 41st place (12 under par, 276 strokes). He aimed for the "niche market" held simultaneously with the premium Genesis Scottish Open, but the results were disappointing. This season, he has missed the cut 7 times out of 18 tournaments, continuing a thorny path.

World No. 370 Trey Mullinax surged with 6 under par to claim a one-stroke victory (25 under par, 263 strokes). He is an unknown player who has joined the PGA Tour in earnest since 2017 and missed the cut 48 times in 105 events. The winner's prize money of $666,000 (866 million KRW) and, above all, the two-year tour card are welcome. Kevin Streelman finished second by one stroke (24 under par, 264 strokes), disappointed. Mark Hubbard (both from the USA) stayed in third place (22 under par, 266 strokes).
