Noh Seung-yul's bid to earn a PGA Tour card for next season suffered a setback as he slipped into a tie for seventh at the Nationwide Children's Hospital Championship on the Korn Ferry Tour.

Noh made two birdies and two bogeys for an even-par 71 in the final round of the $1.5 million event at Ohio State University Golf Club's par-71 Scarlet Course in Columbus, Ohio, on Monday, Korean time.

He began the round in third place, three strokes behind the leader, but finished tied for seventh at 13-under 271.

Scotland's Sandy Scott won at 18-under 266, earning $270,000.

Noh moved up six places to 43rd in the Korn Ferry Tour standings.

He must finish in the top 20 after the season's two remaining events to secure a PGA Tour card for next year.
