American Golfer Jordan Gumberg Saves DP World Tour Card with Final Hole Eagle in Korea

American golfer Jordan Gumberg secured his DP World Tour card for the 2026 season with a dramatic hole-out eagle on the final hole of the Genesis Championship in South Korea. Entering the event ranked 127th in the Race to Dubai standings, Gumberg needed to finish 14th or better to break into the top 115 and retain his playing privileges. On the 18th hole, from 58 yards out, Gumberg lofted a wedge shot that trickled down the green and dropped into the cup, an extraordinary shot that earned him a T7 finish and boosted him to 110th place. This clutch eagle was hailed as the best shot of the season and a career highlight for Gumberg, who had played more events than any other player on the DP World Tour in 2025. Despite a challenging season with many missed cuts, this moment preserved his full-time status and dramatically changed his professional fate. Gumberg, a former collegiate player at Arizona and Tennessee, celebrated the shot with his caddie and expressed disbelief and joy following the achievement.
