​Former Auburn golfer Jackson Koivun has been keeping a brisk pace on the PGA Tour since collecting a national championship with the Tigers last month. His schedule remains packed as he earned a spot in the ISCO Championship field, which will be staged at Hurstbourne Country Club in Louisville, Kentucky. This marks Koivun’s third consecutive weekend of competition after his appearances at the US Open and the John Deere Classic.
Koivun made his professional debut last weekend at the John Deere Classic in Silvis, Illinois, where he missed the cut by four strokes, carding a one-over-par score. That result followed a strong showing at the US Open, where he finished tied for 23rd after posting five over par. Koivun will attempt to surpass his 2025 ISCO Classic performance, aiming for a better result after finishing at five-under par and placing sixth.
The Auburn Tigers will be well represented at the ISCO Championship. In addition to Koivun, Josiah Gilbert, Trace Crowe, and Patton Kizzire will be in the field, with Jason Dufner serving as an alternate.
The ISCO Championship gets underway on Thursday. Gilbert will begin at 8:01 a.m. CT, paired with Ashton Van Horne and David Skins. Koivun will tee off at 12:39 p.m. CT, alongside Miles Russell and Ben James. The Golf Channel will televise the event, with daily coverage from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. CT from Thursday through Sunday.
