Edwards, who was also on the SEC Academic Honor Roll for 2022, won the qualifying tournament in Atlanta with 69-68 score for the tournament.

Over 2,100 total entries to qualify were submitted to the United States Golf Association this year, with only 156 making the cut, Jay’s Edwards being one of them.
