South Korea's Seung-Yul Noh won the third of four Web.com Tour Finals series events Sunday to wrap up a PGA Tour card.
The 22-year-old Noh closed with a 2-under 69 for a five-stroke victory in the Nationwide Children's Hospital Championship. He finished at 12-under 272 on Ohio State's Scarlet Course and earned $180,000 to take the series lead with $210,125.
"I got started pretty solidly today and then I made a bogey on the third hole and I had just a one-shot lead after four holes," Noh said. "I just started thinking to just keep going and play like it's the first round. I wasn't nervous today and felt very comfortable."
He rebounded with birdies on Nos. 5-7.
"The birdie on No. 5 was the turning point," Noh said. "I hit a 5-iron to about 4 feet and then on No. 6, I made about a 35-40-footer for another birdie."
His PGA Tour card secured, Noh is returning home to South Korea for the first time since December. He will miss the series-ending Web.com Tour Championship on Sept. 26-29 in Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla.
