Michael Gligic leads KFT Finals after Day 1; Chris Gotterup's 78 capped with wild triple

With 17 PGA Tour cards on the line at the Korn Ferry Tour Championship, it's imperative to open on the right foot.

Many are feeling good about their chances of notching 2022-23 Tour status after Thursday's round at Victoria National Golf Course in Newburgh, Indiana, while some will need to go low on Friday just to extend their Tour hopes for another two days.

With an opening 64, Canadian Michael Gligic holds a two-stroke lead at 8 under. The 32-year-old, though, regained his Tour card last week at the Nationwide Children's Hospital Championship, the second of three KFT Finals events.
