Nicolás Echavarría signed a new Top 10 at the PGA Tour this Sunday at the end of the sixth position of Rocket Classic played in Detroit.

The Colombian golfer closed with a total of 268 strokes (-20), just two impacts from South African Aldrich Potgieter, who was crowned champion after a close tie-off of five holes. With this result, Echavarría adds its second top 10 of the 2025 season.

The Antioquia, who has already played the three Majors played so far this year, is now emerging to debut in The Open Championship.

In this season, he has passed the cut in 12 of the 17 tournaments he has played, with four appearances in the Top 25. Although he highlighted the solidity of his long game, he acknowledged that he still has a margin of improvement in the putt.

“This year's main objective is to enter the top 50, the Top 70 is also important to enter the playoffs (of the Fedex Cup), but with this it seems to me that I guaranteed the quota to The Open, the most important thing is what I have been doing and I think I did well this week, so the idea is to continue on the same path,” he said.

In the same tournament, Camilo Villegas closed with 280 blows and ended in box 67, a result that does not allow him to take off in the fight to keep his PGA Tour card.

Echavarría, on the other hand, is now ready to play the Jhon Deere Classic, the Genesis Scottish Open and The Open Championship, where he will seek to close with presence in the four greats of the calendar.
