Who qualified for the FedExCup Playoffs?
Who secured a last-minute invite to the FedExCup Playoffs at the Wyndham Championship? Which players failed to extend their seasons? Key questions ahead the final three events of the PGA Tour campaign… Who made it through?
Joohyung Kim had already locked in his PGA Tour card for next season but wasn't initially eligible to feature in the play-offs, as he wasn't a full-time PGA Tour member, only to earn full player status with his impressive victory at the Wyndham Championship.
The 20-year-old recovered from quadruple-bogeying his opening hole of the week to claim a five-shot victory, making him the second-youngest PGA Tour winner since World War Two, with the win seeing him move to 34th place in the season-long standings.
"I would love to play three weeks in a row again," Kim said after his victory. "It's going to be my eighth week in a row if I make it to the Tour Championship. It's a lot of golf, but I'm enjoying it and I'm honoured to play on the PGA Tour - it's incredible."
The only other player to book a last-minute play-off Max McGreevy started the week in 126th place but jumped 21 spots after a final-round 65 at Sedgefield Country Club saw him end the week in the top-five, securing him a place in the FedExCup Playoffs in his rookie season.
"I think my goal was just to play good golf," McGreevy said. "I wasn't trying to get a certain amount of points or finish top-30 or something like that. I haven't played good golf in a long time, so I was just trying to play good golf and I thought it could take care of itself."
The LIV Golf members suspended by the PGA Tour were removed from the eligibility standings, enabling several players previously outside the top-125 to move inside the play-off positions.
