FedEx Cup Fall standings update: Wesley Bryan moves into final spot at 125

Only one event is left to secure a PGA Tour card.

Only one event is left in the PGA Tour season.

Rafael Campos won the 2024 Butterfield Bermuda Championship on Sunday, a move that vaulted him from No. 147 in the FedEx Cup standings to 80th. And he wasn’t the only player to move inside the number with only one chance left for players to secure their cards for the 2025 season.

Any golfer who finishes Nos. 51-60 in the FedEx Cup standings will earn entry into the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and Genesis Invitational, the first two signature events of 2025. Those who finished inside of the top 125 will earn their PGA Tour cards for 2025. This week, Nico Echavarria has joined the group, moving up two spots from 61 to 59.

FedEx Cup Fall standings update: Joe Highsmith, Daniel Berger move inside top 125

Only two events are left to secure a PGA Tour card.

There are two events left in the FedEx Cup Fall, which means only two more chances for golfers to lock up their card for the 2025 season.

Austin Eckroat won for the second time this year behind a final-round 9-under 63, topping Carson Young and Justin Lower by a shot. Eckroat finished in the top 50 during the regular season, so he’s in the signature events in 2025 but now gets into the Masters.

However, Joe Highsmith moved inside the top 125 with his fifth-place finish. He and Daniel Berger were the lone two players to move into the top 125 after the World Wide Technology Championship.

Any golfer who finishes Nos. 51-60 in the FedEx Cup standings will earn entry into the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and Genesis Invitational, the first two signature events of 2025. Those who finished inside of the top 125 will earn their PGA Tour cards for 2025.

Hayden Springer is now the “bubble boy” in the 125th spot.

FedEx Cup Fall standings update: Nico Echavarria makes massive leap after Zozo win

Only three events are left to secure a PGA Tour card

There are only three events left in the FedEx Cup Fall, which means thrice opportunities for golfers to lock up their card for the 2025 season.

At the 2024 Zozo Championship, Nico Echavarria held off Justin Thomas and Max Greyserman to win by a shot while setting a new tournament scoring record at 20 under for the week.

Echavarria’s victory vaulted him from No. 113 in the standings to No. 65, putting him another strong finish away from finishing in the Aon Next 10.

Any golfer who finishes Nos. 51-60 in the FedEx Cup standings will earn entry into the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and Genesis Invitational, the first two signature events of 2025. Those who finished inside of the top 125 will earn their PGA Tour cards for 2025.

FedEx Cup Fall standings update: Michael Kim, Joe Highsmith jump into top 125

The FedEx Cup Fall is halfway complete.

The FedEx Cup Fall is officially halfway over, which means golfers are running out of time to secure their PGA Tour cards for 2025.

At the Shriners Children’s Open, J.T. Poston picked up the third victory of his PGA Tour career, topping Doug Ghim by one shot. He finished in the top 50 of the FedEx Cup standings after the regular season, so he was safe heading into next year, but Michael Kim shot 62 on Sunday and moved into the top 125 of the standings with four events remaining in the fall. Joe Highsmith also made a big move up, from No. 133 to the “bubble boy” position at No. 125.

Kevin Tway (down four spots to 126) and Joel Dahmen (down five to 129) were the two who have fallen out of the top 125.

Any golfer who finishes Nos. 51-60 in the FedEx Cup standings will earn entry into the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and Genesis Invitational, the first two signature events of 2025. Those who finished inside of the top 125 will earn their PGA Tour cards for 2025.

FedEx Cup Fall standings update: Matt McCarty’s win moves him well inside top 125

Two golfers moved up into the top 125, while two slid back.

The PGA Tour’s race for the top 125, which secures status for the 2025 season, is heating up. Three of the eight FedEx Fall series events are in the books, and after the inaugural Black Desert Championship in Utah, two golfers have moved up and two have fallen back.

Matt McCarty won the Black Desert and he finds himself in the No. 95 spot. He actually took any stress out of navigating the top 125 any further by winning, which means a two-year exemption on the PGA Tour.

Henrik Norlander also moved to the good side, climbing from 131 to 119 after he finished tied for eighth at Black Desert Resort.

With two golfers moving up, two had to slide back. Those two were Taylor Montgomery, down four spots to No. 128, and Michael Kim, who was the “bubble boy” at No. 125 but he now checks in at No. 129.

Any golfer who finishes Nos. 51-60 in the FedEx Cup standings will earn entry into the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and Genesis Invitational, the first two signature events of 2025. Those who finished inside of the top 125 will earn their PGA Tour cards for 2025.

FedEx Cup Fall standings update: Kevin Yu into Next 10, Michael Thorbjornsen moves closer to top 125

The time to make a move is running out.

Another FedEx Cup Fall event is in the books, which means the race for the top 125 and Aon Next 10 is even tighter than before.

At the Sanderson Farms Championship, Kevin Yu picked up the first win of his PGA Tour career in a playoff, topping Beau Hossler with a birdie on the first playoff hole. With the win, he earned $1.368 million. The win also moved him to No. 60 in the FedEx Cup standings, which is significant for many reasons.

Any golfer who finishes Nos. 51-60 in the FedEx Cup standings will earn entry into the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and Genesis Invitational, the first two signature events of 2025. Those who finished inside of the top 125 will earn their PGA Tour cards for 2025.

Jordan Spieth, Sepp Straka, Sahith Theegala ride FedEx Cup Playoffs rollercoaster

For some golfers, each birdie putt was a jolt of adrenaline while every bogey was a kick to the gut.

The season-ending Tour Championship features an exclusive field of the top-30 players on the FedEx Cup points list.

For those PGA Tour golfers hugging that top-30 cutline this week at the BMW Championship, getting to the season-finale at East Lake was stressful, with each birdie putt providing a jolt of adrenaline and every bogey feeling like a kick to the gut.

Sunday was once again a rollercoaster of emotions for those players angling for one of those coveted tee times at the 2023 Tour Championship, where the winning prize is $18 million in bonus money.

It made for a fascinating few hours of television on CBS.

Fans enjoyed watching Scottie Scheffler, Viktor Hovland, Matt Fitzpatrick and Max Homa battle for the win while also keeping tabs on the likes of Jordan Spieth, Justin Rose, Sahith Theegala and Sepp Straka, who were all battling to extend their seasons.

Here’s a closer look at the race to East Lake, where ultimately just one golfer played his way into the top 30 but several others walked a tightrope over the final 18 holes at Olympia Fields outside Chicago.

Top 70 bubble watch: PGA Tour players currently in (and out) of the FedEx Cup Playoffs

It’s last call for the FedEx Cup Playoffs and a handful of big names on the PGA Tour are lining up for one last shot.

It’s last call for the FedEx Cup Playoffs and a handful of big names on the PGA Tour are lining up for one last shot.

After the conclusion of this week’s Wyndham Championship, the top 70 players in the FedEx Cup standings will qualify for the first event of the playoffs, the FedEx St. Jude Championship (Aug. 10-13). The top 50 will then advance to the BMW Championship (Aug. 17-20), and the top 30 will ultimately punch their tickets to the season-ending Tour Championship (Aug. 24-27). This year, the total bonus pool for the FedEx Cup Playoffs is a whopping $75 million.

With the regular season coming to a close on Sunday at Sedgefield Country Club in Greensboro, North Carolina, players ranked No. 60 (670) to No. 80  (538) are separated by just 132 points. Each of the last 10 players in and first 10 players out are in the field this week, too.

Cam Davis (No. 69) played his way just inside the top 70 with a T-10 at the 3M Open, same with Lee Hodges, who rose from No. 74 to No. 33 thanks to his win at TPC Twin Cities. Meanwhile, Justin Thomas dropped after his 3M Open missed cut (but more on him to come).

Here are some notable PGA Tour names who are on the outside looking in for the 2023 FedEx Cup Playoffs.

Check out some notable names who are on the bubble for the season-ending playoffs.

[mm-video type=playlist id=01es6rjnsp3c84zkm6 player_id=none image=]

Believe it or not, just six weeks remain between now and the start of the 2023 FedEx Cup Playoffs.

After the conclusion of the Wyndham Championship (Aug. 3-6), the top 70 players in the FedEx Cup standings will qualify for the first event of the playoffs, the FedEx St. Jude Championship (Aug. 10-13). The top 50 will then advance to the BMW Championship (Aug. 17-20), and the top 30 will ultimately punch their tickets to the season-ending Tour Championship (Aug. 24-27).

This year, the total bonus pool for the FedEx Cup Playoffs is a whopping $75 million.

With the final designated event of the regular season now in the rearview, here’s a look at some players who are currently in – and out – of this year’s FedEx Cup playoff events (if the season were to end today).

FedEx St. Jude Championship

Date: Aug. 10-13
Location: TPC Southwind, Memphis, Tennessee

There’s still time for players to make a move, but it’s tightening up inside and outside the bubble as Nos. 60 and 80 are separated by just 101 points.

Justin Thomas (66) played his way into the top 70 just this week, but a few notable names remain on the outside looking in: Shane Lowry (74), Adam Scott (76), Joel Dahmen (80) and Billy Horschel (109).

BMW Championship

Date: Aug. 17-20
Location: Olympia Fields Country Club, Olympia Fields, Illinois

Projecting ahead to the second leg of the three-event playoffs, those inside the top 40 have pulled away, while the bubble for the BMW Championship is getting congested.

If the season ended today, you could add Hideki Matsuyama (52) to the list of Thomas and Co. who wouldn’t qualify for the event. Rising star Cameron Young (48) and fan-favorite Matt Kuchar (50) are a pair of players to keep an eye on, as well.

Tour Championship

Date: Aug. 24-27
Location: East Lake Golf Club, Atlanta

There’s still so much golf to be played that it’s almost foolish to look this far ahead, but let’s not let that get in the way of a fun thought exercise.

A little more than 200 points separate the last player currently in the field for the Tour Championship, Russell Henley, and the 11 players in tow. Of the 30 players currently qualified, five would be making their debut in the event if they remain inside the cut line: Kurt Kitayama, Denny McCarthy, Taylor Moore, Seamus Power and Nick Taylor.

Jordan Spieth (26) and Matt Fitzpatrick (29) are still inside the line, while Tommy Fleetwood (31) and Collin Morikawa (32) would just miss out.

At the top of the list, Jon Rahm and Scottie Scheffler have run away from the pack, with 1,162 points separating No. 2 Scheffler from No. 3 Max Homa. Two-time winners this season Wyndham Clark and Keegan Bradley complete the top five, with Viktor Hovland and Rory McIlroy not far behind.

There’s still plenty of golf to be played and the standings will surely fluctuate over the coming weeks. That said, don’t be surprised to see a few new names in playoff events this season.

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.
