DP World Tour First Stage Qualifying School took place at The Players Club in Bristol last week, with 19 players making sure of progression to Stage Two.
American Cooper Musselman posted a one under par final round 69 to reach five under par for the week and win by four shots from three others that shared second.
Musselman carded rounds of 71-72 on the opening two days before firing a round-of-the-week seven under par 63 on day three to climb into the lead before easing to victory on the final day to move safely through to Second Stage.
Englishmen Giles Evans and Max Orrin, and South Korean Dongwon Kim shared second on one under par.
Scores of plus six or better secured progression, with the 19 players now having direct access to the Second Stage and playing opportunities on the DP World Tour alongside full playing status on the HotelPlanner Tour for the 2026 season.
The Second Stage of DP World Tour Qualifying School will be played across four venues in Spain from October 30-November 2.
