Qualifier Ryan Gerard making the most of his golden opportunity
Posted Feb 24, 2023
Former North Carolina golfer Ryan Gerard has been on a journey he shares with a lot of young and promising golfers. He has been playing the Korn Ferry Tour this season with the goal of one day collecting a PGA TOUR card. Then again, two more good days at the Honda Classic could take of that. This week's winner will be exempt on TOUR through 2025.
