Dramatic finishes seem to be following Michael La Sasso wherever he goes this summer.
A few weeks after his career breakthrough win at the LIV season finale in Indianapolis where he bested Jon Rahm and Bryson DeChambeau, the 22-year-old shot a final round 5-under 67 on Friday at Golf-und Country Club Seddiner See in Michendorf, Germany.
It was good enough for the 2025 NCAA individual champion to qualify on the number at DP World Tour first-stage Qualifying School.
All of it was in jeopardy after a costly bogey on the par-3 11th hole though.
La Sasso followed that up with a par on No. 12 and then birdied four of his six last holes to get to T-18 for the tournament.
Fellow LIV players Josele Ballester, Luis Masaveu and Yosuke Asaji also made it through first stage.
The first stage of DP World Tour Q School continues next weekend with events at Dunham Forest Golf and Country Club in Altrincham, England, and Arlandastad Golf (Masters Course), in Rosersberg, Sweden.
After winning LIV’s season finale in Indianapolis, La Sasso is among five LIV players who have entered the first stage of DP World Tour Q-School.
