Final leaderboard after Harry Hall wins five-man playoff at Kentucky’s PGA Tour ISCO Championship
Kentucky’s annual PGA Tour event, now known as the ISCO Championship, concluded Sunday at Keene Trace Golf Club in Nicholasville.
England’s Harry Hall emerged from a field of 156 golfers to win the 2024 ISCO Championship following a dramatic five-man playoff on Sunday at Keene Trace.
Hall was joined by Zac Blair, Rico Hoey, Matt NeSmith and Pierceson Coody in the playoff, which lasted for three holes after all five players recorded a -22 overall score after 72 holes.
Blair and Hoey were eliminated on the first playoff hole (the par 4 18th). The trio of Coody, NeSmith and Hall all recorded par on the second playoff hole, which was also the 18th.
Then, on the third and ultimately decisive playoff hole (the par 3 9th), Hall chipped in for birdie from more than 46 feet out from the rough to win the tournament. Coody and NeSmith were unable to match that birdie, as both players also chipped out of the rough for their second shots after missing the green with their tee shots.
Hall, a 26-year-old Englishman, banks $720,000 from the $4 million total purse at the ISCO Championship for his victory.
By winning the ISCO Championship, Hall earns 300 FedExCup points and exemptions into the 2025 PGA Tour editions of The Sentry, THE PLAYERS Championship and the PGA Championship.
Hall’s PGA Tour membership exemption will be extended in the winners category through 2026.
This year’s ISCO Championship set a new PGA Tour record for the lowest 36-hole cut score (-8 overall) in an individual, stroke play event. Previously, that record was -7 at the 2020 Shriners Hospitals for Children Open in Las Vegas.
Of the eight players in the ISCO Championship field with Kentucky connections, only one made the cut and played the weekend. That was Cooper Musselman, a 29-year-old former St. Xavier (Louisville) and UK golfer who carded a spectacular 62 (-10) on Friday.
Musselman made the cut at -11 overall and began Saturday in a tie for 15th place. He’s played a round of Even par golf Saturday and a round of 69 (-3) on Sunday.
For the tournament, Musselman recorded a score of -14 overall and finished in a tie for 31st place.
This was the best-ever PGA Tour finish for Musselman, who was in the ISCO Championship field on a sponsor’s exemption.
Amateur Luke Clanton — the pre-tournament betting favorite — shot 70 (-2) in his first round Thursday and shot 65 (-7) on Friday. He made the cut at -9 overall. Clanton shot a 69 (-3) in his third round and a 71 (-1) on Sunday.
He finished in a tie for 37th place.
