The leader of the PGA High Championship is filled with good quality PGA Tour Star power, with names like Retief Goosen, Lee Westwood, Padraig Harrington AND Vijay single All in the mixture.
But silently bound for the superiority in five under the same time with a round remaining is a less known name: Jason Caron. Caron will play in the latest group on Sunday along with Goosen and Angel Cabrera, and despite how round round, Monday, he will turn into his “real” work, as the Golf Professional Head at the Mill River Club at Long Island’s North Shore, in Oyster Bay, where Caron works with his wife, Liz.
Carbon Wonderful year in elderly golf It is worth a quick refresh.
In the early 2000s, Caron competed in both PGA Tour and Korn Ferry Tour before starting a career as a pro -club in the New York Metropolitan Section. Then last year, Caron qualified for the 2024 PGA High Championship and completed the T4 – the best score by a Club Pro since 2002.
In June, Caron entered the US Family Insurance Championship field as an alternative, completing T31.
Next was the US senior Open, which Caron had introduced through a local qualification. He lost the cut, but had the opportunity to put it again just over a month later on the Rogers Charity Classic Classic, where he again entered the field as an alternative. That week, Caron was T3 – a conclusion that put it directly into the Ally Challenge field of the next week, where he was T47.
In October, Caron took on an exception of a sponsor to play Furyk & Friends Constellation, where he again capitalized, finishing T4, and earning another entry into next week’s next week’s tour, where he finished T47.
Caron’s performance in those seven events was just enough to qualify it for the Charles Schwab Cup Championship Cup Play Series, who, similarly to PGA Tour’s FedEx Cup, Whittles down to the 36 best players at the end of the regular season. That group of 36 wins an invitation to the Charles Schwab Cup championship that ends the season in the Phoenix Country Club, as fully excluded for next year’s tournaments.
This club pro almost attracted an epic win on the champions tour
Caron ended T3 at the last event of the Play off series, launching it at no. 35 on the list of Cup points Charles Schwab after playing only nine events – an extraordinary achievement. And even more impressive, Caron said that despite the clinking of the full season of exceptions, he intended to keep his work in Mill River and play as much as he could.
The strategy seems to be being repaid. With the busy season as soon as he started in the northeast, Caron is making his ninth start in PGA Tour’s champions since February this week. He approached to mark his first old tournament victory at colleague Classic in Tucson, where he lost to Steven Alker in a play off.
Now, Caron has returned to the tournament where they all started, linked to the lead, with a chance to win not only his first PGA Tour Champions title, but also a great championship victory.
“A year ago, I would definitely say, who, that couldn’t happen,” Caron said on Saturday. “Now that I have played, let’s just say, maybe 20 events, I feel much more comfortable. I look at it and go, hear, it will be what it will be. If I play my golf and if I play well, it can end up there, and it will happen already.
“I think deep down. I know it can happen,” he continued. “Will it happen? I have no idea. But yes, I feel good enough with him.”
You can be tuned to the last round action at the PGA High Championship starting at 3pm at NBC.
