QUEENS, N.Y. - St. John's men's golf alumnus Keegan Bradley carded a 7-under in a one round qualifier, including an eagle on the 18th hole, to earn a spot on the Nationwide Tour.
"This is big step for Keegan," said head coach Frank Darby. "He has been playing very well and all he needs to do is stay on a roll and he will continue his success at the PGA level."
Bradley is set to tee-off tomorrow morning at the South Georgia Classic presented by First State Bank at the Kinderlou Forest Golf Club in Valdosta, Ga. The event will be played on April 23-26 with a 156 player field competing in the three day event. $625,000 is on the line with $112,500 to the winner.
Bradley was previously playing on the National Golf Association (NGA) Hooters Professional Golf Tour in Florida which is one of the top developmental tours in the United States for aspiring professionals to begin their careers. The Hooters Tour is the third largest men's professional golf tour in the country behind the PGA and Nationwide Tours.
