Top 50 bubble watch: PGA Tour players currently in and out of next year’s designated events (after Memorial Tournament)

No golfers played their way in our out of the top 50, but the top 30 or so players are beginning to pull away.

For PGA Tour players, being inside the top 50 of the FedEx Cup Standings now comes with more than just a spot in the field at the BMW Championship.

Earlier this year the PGA Tour’s board ratified a new approach for the Tour’s 2024 schedule that will see reduced fields in new designated events that feature increased purses up to $20 million. Fields in designated events will contain between 70 and 78 players and be largely comprised of the top 50 players who qualify for the BMW Championship during the previous season’s FedEx Cup Playoffs, adding some extra intrigue to the season-long race that was desperately needed.

Midway through major season, with the U.S. Open at Los Angeles Country Club on the horizon and the Memorial Tournament in the rearview, here’s a look at some players who are currently in – and out – of next year’s designated events.

Biggest movers

Despite coming up short in the playoff to Viktor Hovland at the Memorial, Denny McCarthy was the big mover of the week, jumping 21 spots to No. 26 to find a little breathing room from the top-50 cutoff. Hovland’s fourth win on Tour saw him move up 10 spots to fourth.

No golfers played their way in or out of the top 50 this week, but the top 30 or so players are beginning to pull away and secure their safety.

Notables inside the top 50

The usual suspects this season of Jon Rahm, Scottie Scheffler and Max Homa are all Nos. 1-3 in the standings, with the newcomer Hovland in fourth and Tony Finau dropping to fifth.

Kurt Kitayama (14) has reached as high as fifth this season but moved outside the top 10 this week.

Thomas Detry has come out swinging in his first full season on Tour. The Belgian has eight top 25s and three top 10s in 19 starts and currently sits 41st. Same with 34-year-old Eric Cole (43), who has either finished in the top 25 or been cut in 11 of his last 13 starts.

Fan favorites Jason Day (7) and Rickie Fowler (22) are both inside the top 25, same with Jordan Spieth (18), who continues to climb after a slow start to the season.

Notables outside the top 50

Only 127 points separate Nos. 51 Tommy Fleetwood (611) and 70 Justin Suh (484).

Justin Thomas is currently No. 75 but would still qualify for the designated events due to his top-30 place in the Official World Golf Ranking (15), same with Tommy Fleetwood (51) and Hideki Matsuyama (57). Cameron Young – ranked 17th in the world – sits 47th in the FedEx Cup standings just inside the line.

Other notable players currently outside the top 50 (ranking in parentheses):

  • Keith Mitchell (61)
  • Joel Dahmen (72)
  • Adam Scott (80)
  • Shane Lowry (88)
  • Gary Woodland (93)
  • Billy Horschel (108)
  • Webb Simpson (156)

There’s still plenty of time for players to make their moves up the standings, and we’ll be here to keep you updated on the top 50 storylines for the rest of the season.

2023 Memorial Tournament prize money payouts for each PGA Tour player

It pays to play well on the PGA Tour, especially at designated events.

It pays to play well on the PGA Tour, especially in designated events. Just ask this week’s winner, Viktor Hovland.

The 25-year-old won the 2023 Memorial Tournament at Muirfield Village Golf Club in Dublin, Ohio, on Sunday for his fourth PGA Tour victory. Hovland shot a final-round 2-under 70 to claim the title at 7 under after a one-hole playoff with Denny McCarthy.

For his efforts, Hovland will take home the top prize of $3.6 million, while McCarthy will leave with $2.18 million out of the $20 million designated event purse.

Scottie Scheffler shot the low round of the day, a 5-under 67, to finish a shot outside the playoff and finish solo third at 6 under for a $1.38 million payday.

Check out how much money each PGA Tour player earned this week at the 2023 Memorial Tournament, the 10th designated event of the season.

Viktory for Viktor: How Hovland built a more complete game and made a late birdie for a playoff win at the 2023 Memorial Tournament

Hovland birdied the 17th to eventually force a playoff and earn his fourth PGA Tour win.

Viktor Hovland finally bagged a PGA Tour win at one of the biggest events.

The 25-year-old Norwegian made a two-putt par from 58 feet on the first playoff hole to defeat Denny McCarthy and win the Memorial on Sunday.

“I don’t want it again,” Hovland said of the decisive seven footer he holed, sporting his trademark smile.

Hovland now has won in each of the last four seasons on Tour but fellow pro Edoardo Molinari, who doubles as Hovland’s performance coach, noted that his previous wins have shared something in common.

Indeed, all of his Tour wins had been on tropical islands: in Puerto Rico and twice in Mexico near Cancun plus two more unofficial titles in The Bahamas. It’s ironic given that he grew up in the cold of Norway.

[mm-video type=video id=01h24dj6wj5m1ekpra79 playlist_id=none player_id=none image=https://images2.minutemediacdn.com/image/upload/video/thumbnail/mmplus/01h24dj6wj5m1ekpra79/01h24dj6wj5m1ekpra79-f9136e2d09ab410128bb20827e488843.jpg]

“Sometimes I tease him that it’s about time he wins on a serious golf course, not at a tourist place,” Molinari said.

Muirfield Village Golf Club, the course that Jack Nicklaus built near his childhood home in Dublin, Ohio, certainly qualifies as “a serious course.” On another warm and sunny day, Jack’s Place, as it is affectionately called, played fast and firm and the greens turned into concrete, but Hovland managed to shoot a final-round 2-under 70 to finish at 7-under 281.

“This week the golf course is arguably harder than most major championship golf courses we play,” Hovland said. “It felt like a major. So it was really cool that I was able to get it done at a place like this…It feels even better after some close calls.”

The seventh-ranked player in the world, Hovland has been a model of consistency with 24 straight cuts made worldwide – and has been knocking on the door at some of the biggest tournaments, including top-10 finishes at the last three majors. He chased Brooks Koepka almost to the finish at the PGA Championship last month, settling for a T-2, his best result in a major and recorded a T-3 in March at the Players Championship. It didn’t take long for Hovland, the winner of the 2018 U.S. Amateur, to establish himself as one of the best ballstrikers on Tour, but his short game admittedly was a weakness. What made this victory special for Hovland was the way he won it: without his best stuff from tee-to-green but a short game that has made great strides and a putter that continually bailed him out.

“It feels great to win one without having to ball-strike it to death,” Hovland said.

He also credited his improved course management. Two years ago, he played a practice round at the U.S. Open with Molinari, the brother of Francesco, the 2018 British Open winner, and a week later he implemented some of his tips at the BMW International in Germany and won the tournament.

“I was impressed with the way his mind worked,” Hovland said.

He hired Molinari to help with his strategy and it has paid big dividends. Speaking ahead of the tournament, Hovland noted that Molinari crunched his numbers and discovered earlier this year that when Hovland attacked greens with pitching wedge and 8-iron, he was short-siding himself 30 percent of the time and the Tour average is 20 percent of the time.

“Because I’m a good iron player it should be closer to 15 percent of the time if not less than that,” Hovland said. “I was putting too much pressure on my short game by being too aggressive.”

“It would be kind of a double whammy for me before,” Hovland said at his winner’s press conference. I would short-side myself and I didn’t have any tools around the green to slow the ball down, and now I can’t even keep the chip on the green. So you’re just always grinding.

“But this week I told myself that when I’m out of position just play for the fatter part of the green and if I miss the green, I still have a shot where I can roll the ball up or slow the ball down enough to get it close to the pin.”

Hovland shot a third-round 69 and started the day one shot behind Rory McIlroy, who stumbled to 75, Si Woo Kim (73) and David Lipsky (77). Three strokes back on the 15th tee, he made birdie there and drained a 28-foot birdie putt at 17, the only birdie at the hole during the final round, to cut his deficit to one. McCarthy, whose putter had been brilliant all day, drove into trouble left at the last and missed a 23-foot par putt for his first Tour title.

Returning to the 18th tee for the first playoff hole, McCarthy overcompensated and drove right and couldn’t reach the green. McCarthy burned the left edge on his 12-foot par putt, bending his knees in disbelief that his well-struck putt wouldn’t drop. Hovland, who ranked third in putting for the week, snuck in a 5-foot putt for the win.

“I’m heartbroken right now,” McCarthy said. “I thought this was going to be the week.”

Entering the final round it was anyone’s tournament with 22 players within three strokes of the lead. For the second week in a row, Scheffler finished a stroke out of a playoff despite a marvelous ball-striking week and a closing 67, which was three strokes better than anyone else in the field. Scheffler, who made the 36-hole cut on the mark at 3 over, ranked first in SG: Tee-to-Green and SG: Approach the Green but ranked 65th — or dead last — in SG: Putting, losing more than 8.5 strokes to the field on the greens for the week.

“I think a little bit of my struggles with the putting have probably helped me sort of elevate my ball striking just because if I’m trying to compete out here I have to – I mean, with the putts not going in, I got to hit it really good and I’ve been able to do that,” Scheffler said.

But not well enough to beat Hovland, who finally won on the U.S. mainland. Back in Norway, Hovland’s star continues to rise but golf’s popularity pales in comparison to skiing and soccer. Asked how well known the name Nicklaus, the winner of a record 18 majors, is back home, Hovland smiled and with the Golden Bear by his side, said, “Not to break your ego, but I don’t think there’s too many people that know about you.”

From Oslo to Ohio, they do know that Hovland is the champion of the Memorial at Jack’s Place.

Davis Riley leads, Jordan Spieth and Jon Rahm are lurking and defending champ Billy Horschel blows up at 2023 Memorial

“Once you get a taste of (winning), you want to get back there as soon as possible.” — Davis Riley

DUBLIN, Ohio – When former U.S. Open champion Lucas Glover pulled up to the front gate at Jack Nicklaus’s Muirfield Village Golf Club this week, he asked the attendant how he was doing.

“He said, ‘If I was any happier, I’d be dancing.’ I’d never heard that one before,” Glover said. “And then he followed that up by saying, ‘And nobody wants that, trust me.’ ”

On a warm, sunny Thursday at the Memorial, Davis Riley danced around Jack’s Place to the tune of 5-under 67, to lead Englishman Matt Wallace by a stroke.

Riley, 26, made birdie on three of the final four holes to vault to the top of the leaderboard. But it was a par save at the second hole that jump-started his round after an errant tee shot left stopped behind a tree. Riley pitched out sideways and then wedged inside 3 feet and holed the putt.

“I felt like that was kind of a momentum-keeper shot and hole and, yeah, that kind of kept the round going,” he said.

He made a birdie at the third and finished with a flurry of birdies including a 13-footer at the ninth.

“I thought that I left the last one short and thankfully it fell in on the last roll and it was a good way to end the day,” he said.

A year ago, he shot an opening-round 67, too, and was part of a six-way tie for the lead before finishing T-13. Riley, who claimed his first PGA Tour win last month at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans, entered the week having missed four straight cuts.

“I hit a really hard reset at the beginning of this week and said to my caddie James (Edmonston) – he helped me out a lot with that and he’s like, ‘Look, you just need to keep doing your thing, good golf is right around the corner.’ I know it’s weird saying that when you win, six, seven weeks ago, but it’s just one of those things to try to kind of get that consistency part, I feel like I need to be a little easier on myself and just keep playing my golf,” he said. “Once you get a taste of (winning), you want to get back there as soon as possible, and I feel like I’ve been getting in my own way a little bit.”

Asked if he would treat himself to one of Muirfield’s trademark milkshakes after his strong start, Riley said he’d hold off because it would keep him up all night and he’s got an early wake-up call for his 8:12 a.m. tee time.  “If tomorrow goes well I’ll probably have to have one,” he said.

Dylan Frittelli withdraws from 2023 Memorial Tournament after shooting 15 over in his first 14 holes

Frittelli’s struggles on the PGA Tour continue.

DUBLIN, Ohio – Dylan Frittelli’s struggles on the PGA Tour continue.

The 32-year-old South African withdrew from the 2023 Memorial Tournament on Thursday after playing 14 holes in 15-over par at Muirfield Village Golf Club. Frittelli cited illness as the reason for his early departure.

Frittelli is in the midst of a slump – he’s missed seven cuts and withdrawn twice in his 11 starts. The former Texas Longhorn has missed the cuts in his last four starts and seemed well on his way to extending that streak to five when he pulled the plug on his round.

Frittelli got off to a modest start and was 1 over early in his round after sticking his approach to 7 feet at No. 6 and making his lone birdie of the day. But his round began to unravel soon thereafter. A bogey at the par-5 seventh hole started the slide and he finished the front nine with a double-bogey six. Then the wheels really came off: back-to-back triple bogeys at Nos. 10 and 11, and double bogeys at Nos. 12 and 14 were sandwiched around a bogey at 13.

Frittelli also withdrew from the RBC Heritage in April after shooting an opening-round 80.

Frittelli won the 2019 John Deere Classic. He entered the week No. 138 in the FedEx Cup point standings.

Brandt Snedeker returns to PGA Tour after 9-month layoff following experimental surgery

“I still know how to (win). I’m not an idiot. I did this one time, I can do it again.”

DUBLIN, Ohio – Brandt Snedeker couldn’t hit any of five milkshakes positioned on a stand a mere 10 yards in front of him on the driving range at Muirfield Village Golf Club on Tuesday. It was part of a timed contest for charity and as Snedeker raked another ball in front of him, he inquired, “How much time do I have left? I’m better than this.”

He eventually smoked two of the club’s renowned milkshakes – a terrible waste of the tasty treat in my humble opinion – but pardon the rust on the game of Snedeker, a nine-time PGA Tour winner who hasn’t played a PGA Tour event since September’s kick-off to the 2022-2023 season at the Fortinet Championship in Napa, California, after undergoing surgery in December to repair his sternum.

Snedeker had been diagnosed with a sternum issue in 2016 and for much of the next six years had been traveling to South America to do stem cell treatments. Even still, he was living with constant pain and a mixture of Tylenol, Advil and steroids only would do so much. It had limited his practice to the point that he couldn’t even hit driver when he was home.

“I’d have to save them up until I got out here,” he said. “(Dealing with the sternum injury) just had taken over so much of my life.”

Snedeker had rested for eight weeks and decided to play the Fortinet Championship nine months ago. He felt fine until the second round when he started experiencing a knifing pain with every breath. He made the cut and persevered through the weekend, finishing T-59, but he concluded he couldn’t continue down this path. It was now or never to do surgery.

“Or we’re gonna have to find something else to do,” Snedeker said.

Easier said than done, however. Snedeker had manubrium joint stabilization, a disease with about a dozen known cases in the country and limited surgical options.

“To say it’s a rare thing is an understatement,” Snedeker said.

Dr. Burton Elrod, a Nashville, Tennessee, orthopedic and sports medicine surgeon had performed a procedure on NFL quarterback Steve McNair in 2004 to strengthen his chest but had sworn to never do it again because of the risk of infection to the patient.

“I talked him into one more,” Snedeker said of the experimental surgery that took a bone the size of his thumb from his right hip and stuck it into his sternum. “He told me, ‘This is the last one.’ ”

The surgery on December 1, which left him with a six-inch scar, has been judged a success. Snedeker spent the next four weeks in a recliner – “I felt like someone hit me with a Mack truck,” he said – and didn’t hit a golf ball until April 1. He took some trips he’d always wanted to do, including to the Bahamas where he bumped into Jack Nicklaus and talked fishing for half an hour, and enjoyed being a full-time father. But he also made an important realization: “I think I found out I’m too young to retire,” said Snedeker, 42.

With four starts remaining on a minor medical extension, he had circled this week’s Memorial on his calendar to make his return to competition, and after playing every day for the last two weeks and experiencing no setbacks said he’s ready to get back to “the only job I’ve really ever had.”

“I was like you know what, gotta jump into the deep end at some point,” he said. “Until I start doing it every day, week after week, month after month, I won’t know for sure if the surgery solved all of my pain issues but so far, so good.”

And his goal hasn’t changed.

“Just win baby,” he said. “I still know how to do it. I’m not an idiot. I did this one time, I can do it again.”

NBA star Steph Curry, NFL Hall of Famer, singer Luke Bryan join Memorial pro-am field

The 2023 Memorial’s pro-am is just as loaded as the tournament field.

NBA star Stephen Curry almost certainly will miss more shots than two of his teammates when he participates in the Memorial Tournament Workday Golden Bear Invitational pro-am Wednesday at Muirfield Village Golf Club.

Curry is an avid golfer with a low handicap, but is in the same group with three-time major championship winner Jordan Spieth and PGA Tour winner Keith Mitchell. That said, Curry probably scores better than his father, retired NBA star Dell Curry, and brother Seth, who plays for the Brooklyn Nets. The latter two are in a group with actor Chris O’Donnell, two-time major championship winner Collin Morikawa and Tyrrell Hatton.

After announcing Monday that Hall of Fame quarterback Peyton Manning and retired NFL wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald would headline the pro-am, the Memorial released more celebrity names early Wednesday, including the Currys, Golden State Warriors forward Andre Iguodala, country singer Luke Bryan and actor Josh Duhamel. Other celebs include Hall of Fame quarterback Steve Young, former NFL quarterback Alex Smith, former NFL offensive tackle Harris Barton and former Formula 1 driver turned McLaren Racing CEO Zak Brown.
