Hardy, coming off a T59 finish last week at the ISCO Championship, returns to the Tahoe Mountain Club for his fourth career start at the Barracuda Championship.
The event uses the Modified Stableford scoring format. Hardy posted his best finish in the event in 2022 when he recorded a T13 finish with a final score of +27.
KORN FERRY TOUR
Brian Campbell will once again have some company at the Korn Ferry Tour’s Price Cutter Charity Championship in the form of rookie Timmy Crawford.
Campbell, currently No. 8 on the Korn Ferry Tour points list, added another stellar finish to his 2024 resume with his second runner-up of the season at The Ascendant.
Crawford, making his Korn Ferry Tour debut, was hot on Campbell’s heels. After Monday Qualifying for the event and making the cut, Crawford recorded only the fifth hole-in-one on a Par 4 in tour history in Round 3.
