DANIELS, W.Va. --- ECU rising junior Blake Taylor qualified for his first PGA TOUR event Monday at the Greenbrier Classic "Open" qualifier at the Resort at Glade Springs. The Atkinson, N.C. native shot 5-under-par 66 to finish in a four-way tie for second place.
Taylor, Wes Homan and Logan Lagodich defeated Mark Silvers in a playoff for the final three qualifying spots behind leader and former U.S. Amateur Public Links champion T. J. Vogel, who carded a 6-under-par 65.
