Lingmerth Wins to Make It Back to PGA Tour David Lingmerth won the 2022 Nationwide Children’s Hospital Championship at Ohio State University Golf Course last month. It was the next to last stop on the Korn Ferry Tour’s 2022 schedule and the victory helped propel Lingmerth into the top five on the Korn Ferry Tour Points List. He will head back to the PGA Tour next year. Lingmerth, from Sweden, will forever have fond memories of Columbus, as he became the only player to havewon both theNationwide Children’s Hospital Championship and the Memorial. At the 2015 Memorial Tournament held in Dublin at Muirfield Village Golf Club, just a few miles from OSU’s Scarlet course, Lingmerth beat Justin Rose in a playoff to collect his sole PGA Tour title. Lingmerth is no stranger to the PGA Tour, he has made 113 cuts in his 198 starts with career earnings of $9.2 million. Changes Coming to Korn Ferry Tour in 2023 The Korn Ferry Tour has been visiting the Scarlet Course at Ohio State University for 16 years. It has always been one of the last events of the season and players were under pressure to perform well to move inside the top Top 25 to earn PGA Tour cards for the next year. With several changes on the PGA Tour, the Korn Ferry Tour will be seeing a few changes, as well. One is that the Nationwide Children’s Hospital Championship will move from its historic late August date to September 18-24. Ohio Golf Journal
