The FedEx Cup Regular Season finale has arrived, as this week’s Wyndham Championship marks the last chance to qualify for the FedExCup Playoffs.
The top 70 on the FedEx Cup after the Wyndham Championship will qualify for the FedEx St. Jude Championship, the first leg of the three-event FedEx Cup Playoffs. The top 50 after the FedEx St. Jude will qualify for the BMW Championship, and the top 30 after the BMW will qualify for the TOUR Championship.
After an emotional week at his home Paris Olympics, Victor Perez arrives at the Wyndham holding the all-important No 70 position on the FedExCup Playoffs and Eligibility Points List, as he looks to stave off challengers and solidify a Playoffs berth. Tournament winners this season near the bubble include Nick Dunlap (No 65 on the Playoffs and Eligibility Points List), Jhonattan Vegas (No 66) and Davis Riley (No 71).
Last year, winner Lucas Glover was the only player to move inside the top 70 at the Wyndham Championship. This week has the potential to offer more volatility, though, based on the results of players near the bubble.
⛳ Who are the Big Names To Miss Out? Stars who are already out include Rickie Fowler, Zach Johnson, Cameron Champ and Francesco Molinari.
Fowler is without a top-10 finish this season. As a result, he’s currently 104th in the FedEx Cup standings, well short of reaching the first Playoff event.
Johnson is currently on 181 points, meaning even a win this week wouldn’t be enough to jump from 152nd in the standings to 70th.
As for Molinari, he is 205th in the FedEx Cup standings and with no place in the Wyndham Championship field, not only will Molinari not make the Playoffs, but he won’t make the top 125 to keep his full card.
