Fresh off making his third consecutive cut as a professional on the PGA Tour, Gig Harbor's Kyle Stanley will try and find the same kind of success across the pond.

Stanley, the Bellarmine Prep product, is one of seven golfers to accept a sponsor's exemptions to play in this week's European Tour stop – the SAS Masters at Barseback Golf and Country Club in Sweden – and among three Americans to be granted the invitation, along with Will Mackenzie and James Driscoll, both PGA Tour regulars.

Apparently, two-time SAS Masters champion Jesper Parnevik was the one who mediated the invitation for Stanley.

Stanley finished tied for 65th at last week's U.S. Bank Championship of Milwaukee, and jumped on an airplane Monday to play.

Also, because of his All-American status from Clemson University last season, Stanley will be in the field for the Nationwide Tour's Children's Hospital Invitational starting July 30 in Ohio.
