5. Spencer Levin Monday Qs and Wins
Two weeks before the Veritex Bank Championship on KFT, Spencer Levin didn’t really have a job. The man with 360 combined starts between the PGA and Korn Ferry Tours, and 147 made cuts on the PGA Tour, didn’t have exempt status and a regular place to compete.
Levin had been playing well back home and decided to make the trip to Dallas to visit a friend and play a Monday qualifier. It was one of the best decisions of Levin’s career, as he made it through the qualifier, and put together three impressive rounds of 66, 68 and 67. Levin entered the final round six-strokes behind leader, Brett Drewitt. When Levin woke up on the final day he wasn’t thinking about winning.
