Kevin Kisner took home the hardware on the Web.com Tour for the second time in his career when he signed for a 4-under-par 33-35=68 in the final round of the Chile Classic.
Kisner finished the week at 21-under 71-67-61-68=267, only suffering two bogeys in his last three rounds. He began the day in a three-way tie for the lead, but gradually distanced himself with five birdies in his first 13 holes. His lone bogey surprisingly came at the par-5 14th, but he would hang on from there. This win was a bit unexpected, as he has missed the cut in his previous two starts this season. His previous victory came at the 2010 Mylan Classic. He now moves to second on the Web.com Tour money list and is a virtual lock to finish the year inside the top 75 to gain entry into the four tournament race for a 2013-2014 PGA TOUR card, where he was a member in 2011 and 2012.

Kevin Kisner fired a course-record 11-under-par 32-29=61 in the third round of the Chile Classic to share the lead at 17-under 199 with Benjamin Alvarado and Edward Loar.

Kisner was a modest 1-under through five holes before he kicked on the afterburners. After a birdie at six, he rattled in four consecutive birdies beginning with the eight hole. He then eagled the par-5 14th before finishing with birdies on each of his last three holes. As you would likely assume, his round was without a blemish. His course record smashed the previous mark of 64 set by three players last season.

Kevin Kisner polished off his week at the Wyndham Championship with a 4-under-par 34-32=66 in the final round to finish the week at 5-under 275.

Kisner circled five birdies to a lone bogey in his tour of Sedgefield Country Club on the strength of a hot putter. He needed just 26 putts to a 1.636 average to navigate the 11 greens he found in regulation. At the time of his posting, he was projected 153rd in the FedExCup standings, so a trip to The Barclays is not in his future.

Kevin Kisner earned his first-career top 10 with a final-round 1-under-par 34-35=69 at the RBC Canadian Open.

That was good enough to put him in a tie for 10th at 10-under 270. Had he reduced his 33 putts and 2.00 putting average in the finale, it would have made for an even better finish. He now moves on to Nevada for the Reno-Tahoe Open.

Kevin Kisner carded a 5-under-par 32-33=65 in his second round of the RBC Canadian Open to reach the midpoint in 6-under 134, five strokes back of the 36-hole clubhouse co-leaders.

Kisner hit 14 greens at Hamilton today and rolled in six birdies, including conversions from 11'1" and 33 feet at the 13th and 18th holes, respectively. It's his lowest aggregate on the PGA TOUR this year, and it comes at a great time as he arrived in Ontario ranked 169th in FedExCup points.

Kevin Kisner opened the Travelers Championship with a 4-under-par 33-33=66 to finish two strokes off the clubhouse lead.

Kisner recorded a quiet T13 in Memphis two weeks ago for his best finish of the year. He brought that form with him to Connecticut today, hitting 14 greens and swallowing a lone bogey at the 18th hole, his last of the round. His most notable of five birdies found the cup from 28'2" at the 14th, and he also drilled home a par save from 17'2" at the 15th. The second-year PGA TOUR member was the tenth to sign for a 66 today.

Kevin Kisner spent most of the afternoon flirting with the lead in the third round of the FedEx St. Jude Classic, but settled for an even-par 35-35=70.

It was a rocky ride for Kisner, as he watched each of his five birdes offest by matching bogeys. He landed 11 GIR and rolled the pill 26 times to the tune of a 1.545 putting average in his navigation of the TPC Southwind. He enters the final round with a chance to surpass his T12 at the 2011 Children's Miracle Network Hospitals Classic as the best finish of his young career.

Kevin Kisner is 5-under-par 69-66=135 at the midpoint of the FedEx St. Jude Classic, and sits two strokes off the 36-hole lead.

Kisner hit only greens in regulation in his second round but he poured in six birdies, including four straight to start his second nine on the first hole at TPC Southwind. Half of his birdies measured 13 feet or longer, including conversions of 22'7" and 44'11" at the 15th and fourth holes, respectively. Kisner's T25 in Puerto Rico earlier this season is his only top 25 in 36 career PGA TOUR starts, so he might be entering unchartered territory in Memphis this weekend.

Kevin Kisner will make the FedEx St. Jude Clasic his 13th start of the season.

It's been a rough sophmore campaign for the South Carolinian, as he has managed just five paydays and a lone top 25 (a T25) in Puerto Rico. If there is a bright spot, he posted a T36 finish at the HP Byron Nelson, when last he played. He ranks 36th in Strokes Gained-Putting, but 110th in ball-striking.

Kevin Kisner spun a bogey-free, 4-under-par 33-35=68 in his opening round of the Puerto Rico Open to finish one stroke off the clubhouse lead.

Kisner has shown flashes in his second year on TOUR but hasn't illustrated any consistency, with zero top 50 among two paydays in six starts. Today was obviously a highlight. He split 11 (of 14) fairways and hit 14 greens en route to four birdies, just one of which was on a par 5.

Kevin Kisner signed for a 3-over-par 37-36=73 following his opening round of the Sony Open in Hawaii.

The PGA TOUR sophomore was in our crosshairs today due to a fractured foot he sustained while jogging in December. Alas, he didn't necessarily convince us that he's feeling OK. Kisner opened double bogey-bogey-bogey before trading four birdies with three more bogeys the rest of the way. If there was a positive, it was that he drilled home birdies of 36'4" and 36'0" at the seventh and 10th holes, respectively. His strength is with his 14th club.
