After three seasons on the Web.com Tour, van Aswegen earned his PGA Tour card for the first time at the inaugural 2013 [[Web.com Tour Finals]].<ref name=Profile>{{cite web |url=http://www.pgatour.com/players/player.28132.tyrone-van-aswegen.html/profile |title=Tyrone van Aswegen player profile |publisher=PGA Tour |accessdate=6 October 2015}}</ref>
