Then he earned a sponsor exemption into the following week’s Arnold Palmer Invitational. He will also play the Memorial Tournament as the reigning Nicklaus Award winner, given annually to the college player of the year, and there is a good chance he will get spots in the Zurich Classic and FedEx St. Jude Classic.

As a non-member, he is allowed a maximum of seven sponsor exemptions each season. (Neither Valspar nor Memorial count against his total.) Earning special temporary membership – or as many FedExCup points as the 150th-place finisher on last season’s list – would allow Burns to receive unlimited sponsor exemptions for the rest of the season. He is currently 147 points shy of that mark.

If he makes cut next week he more than likely earns temporary status.

top ten finishes earn players entry to the next regular tournament, it’s how he got into this tournament. Does that remove his sponsor exemption for Arnold Palmer or does it go towards the next tournament. I know bay hill is an invitational so just wondering
