New thread, good time for an update on the Illini pros. I counted 19 that are active.

PGA Tour (Top 70 for playoffs, top 100 for full exemption):
Safe:
- Brian Campbell - 161st in the Fedex Cup standings, been a tough year but he is exempt through 2028 due to his two wins last year

Work to do:
- Adrien Dumont de Chassard - 123rd
- Nick Hardy - 193rd Fedex Cup / 155th KFT points - work to do on both fronts to have status next year

Korn Ferry Tour (Top 20 to get PGA Tour card, top 75 for KFT exemption):
In good shape:
- Jackson Buchanan - 60th

Work to do:
- Michael Feagles - 119th
- Luke Guthrie - 166th

PGA Americas Tour (Top 10 get KFT status, top 60 retain PGA Americas):
Safe:
- Ryan Voois - 79th - PGA University gives him status through 2027

In good shape:
- Piercen Hunt - 55th

PGA Champions Tour
- Steve Stricker - Age 59, probably can play as long as he wants since he won 18 events including 7 majors
- D.A. Points - Turns 50 in December, has said he wants to play on the Champions tour
- Mike Small - Plays some Champions events as well as local events

LIV (for now)
- Thomas Detry - Also has DP World Tour status
- Thomas Pieters - Has indicated he would go to DPWT Q-school if the LIV folds

- Jerry Ji (occasionally)

No current status, but still playing - these guys are still active and sign up for q-schools and occasional qualifiers
