Ryan Helminen
Appleton’s Ryan Helminen’s 10th place finish at the PGA Professional Championship on Wednesday in New York, qualified him for his third consecutive PGA Championship in late July.
Helminen is a Teaching Pro at Ridgeway Country Club in Neenah. He finished four-over-par during his final round on Thursday at Turning Stone in Verona, New York. He finished 4-under par for the four round tournament and tied for 10th.
The top 20 qualifiers all secured a spot in the PGA Championship Field. Rich Berberian Jr. rallied to win the event, holing a 30-foot birdie putt on the final hole for a one-stroke victory.
