As the Second Stage of PGA Tour Q-School approaches, talented amateurs are gearing up to make a mark in their quest for a tour card. With strong performances in First Stage qualifiers, these players are now one step closer to earning status on the professional circuit. Five locations are hosting the Second Stage—the first one is being played November 19-22, while the next four start on December 3.
According to the PGA TOUR website, at the Second Stage, medalists (and ties) gain Korn Ferry Tour membership with guaranteed starts in the first eight events of 2025, provided they don’t improve their standing at the Final Stage.
Additionally, the next 10 finishers (and ties) at the Second Stage receive conditional membership through the Latin America Swing. At the Final Stage, the top five finishers (and ties) secure PGA TOUR cards for 2025, while the next 40 finishers (and ties) receive Korn Ferry Tour status, with guaranteed starts for the first 12 or eight events, depending on their position.
All remaining Final Stage finishers will earn conditional Korn Ferry Tour status along with exemption through the Latin America Swing of the PGA TOUR Americas.
Jake Hall is the lone amateur competing in the Georgia qualifier at The Landings Club. Hall comes off a stellar First Stage performance, where he shot 11-under to finish in 3rd place, just two shots shy of medalist honors as the only amateur to advance from the North Carolina qualifier. Hall finished 8th in Georgia’s Pre-Qualifying at 6-under to advance to the First Stage.
After all four rounds and 72 holes of the Second Stage qualifying, Hall finished 12-under and T18 with rounds of 70-68-67-71 to make the cut on the number.
His third round 5-under 67 consisted of six birdies and one bogey to propel him onto the right side of the cutline heading into the final 18 holes.
A former Tennessee Volunteer, Hall boasts an impressive record, winning the 2023 All-American Intercollegiate and Tennessee State Amateur. He capped off his collegiate career with top finishes in major events, including T4 at the 2024 Cabo Collegiate and T7 at the SEC Championship, solidifying his place among the SEC's best.
