James has finished T54-T23-T62 in his three outings since earning his PGA Tour status through the 2027 season as the top-ranked player in the PGA Tour University Rankings.

Nonetheless, he finished second among the field in driving accuracy and T3 in par-5 scoring for the week.

James is a very talented prospect who earned First Team All American honors in each of the last four years at Virginia. He will also tee it up at the RBC Canadian Open this week.
