Luke Ringkamp Erases Five-Shot Deficit to Win Team TaylorMade Invitational by Three

Luke Ringkamp closed with a 6-under 64 to erase a five-shot final-round deficit and win his second AJGA Invitational title at Pelican Golf Club's debut as tournament host.

Luke Ringkamp closed the 2026 AJGA Team TaylorMade Invitational with a 6-under 64, the low round of the week among contenders, to finish at 13-under 197 and win by three shots at Pelican Golf Club, hosting the event for the first time. Ringkamp opened with rounds of 65 and 68 before trailing by five shots entering the final round and running down the field with six birdies on the closing 18.

Bodie Brumlow, who opened with a 9-under 61, the lowest single-round score in AJGA Invitational history, led after 36 holes but could not sustain the pace, closing with a 2-over 72 to finish runner-up at 10-under 200. Giuseppe Puebla finished third at 8-under 202, with Landon Ashcraft and Miles Russell tied for fourth at 7-under 203.

The win was Ringkamp's second AJGA Invitational title. Ranked No. 4 in the Rolex AJGA Rankings and a Pepperdine commit, Ringkamp credited the AJGA for shaping his development as a player. Launched in 2021 in partnership with TaylorMade, the Team TaylorMade Invitational draws the 72 highest-ranked junior boys in the country and rotates annually among elite private courses and resort tracks.
