Trey Mullinax led the Orange County National Championship after 54 holes, but found himself down a stroke with three holes to play. He sank a 40-foot birdie on 16 to regain a share of the lead, then birdied the final hole to win for the second time in his career on the Korn Ferry Tour. The win culminates a year-plus roller-coaster where he lost his PGA Tour card in part because of a concussion suffered in a Pro-Am event, and struggled early in the current Korn Ferry season (no Top 50s in first 6 events). Mullinax finishes the calendar year with 5 straight cuts made, including 3 Top 10s.
