Chandler Blanchet birdied the first three holes of the final round on the way to a 6-under 66 and a victory at the season-ending Korn Ferry Tour Championship. Blanchet, who finished below par every round and was 14-under for the tournament, finished two strokes ahead of Round 3 leader Barend Botha, who ended as the runner-up by two strokes.
Neal Shipley and Joe Weiler (11-under) tied for third place and Trent Phillips (9-under) rounded out the top five in the second year of the tournament being contested at The Pete Dye Course at French Lick Resort.
Already secure inside the top 10 of the points list entering the week at No. 7, Blanchet’s win vaulted him to No. 2 overall. Johnny Keefer clinched the No. 1 position on the 2025 Korn Ferry Tour points list, earning exemptions for THE PLAYERS Championship and U.S. Open in 2026. Eighteen more players including Shipley also had reason to celebrate as they finished in the top 20 for the season to earn PGA Tour membership for the 2026 season.
