The TOUR Championship features the top 30 golfers from the FedExCup standings in 2025, and just getting a spot in the field means a player has a chance to win this year’s FedExCup – as, new for this year, everyone starts at even par come Thursday.

Scottie Scheffler, the leader in the FedEx Cup standings heading into this week’s Tour Championship, holds a 3,769-point advantage over No. 2 Rory McIlroy after winning the BMW Championship on Sunday.

$19.5 Million PGA Tour Star Stuns With Reason for BMW Championship Final Round Woes originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Ben Griffin had designs on more than a T12 finish at the BMW Championship, but it was a position he was happy to accept after a remarkable final round that started in the most bizarre fashion.

While factual and fresh, it’s strictly academic to state that Scheffler banks 2,000 FedExCup points for the win at Caves Valley Golf Club in Owings Mills, Maryland, because he was a lock to advance to the TOUR Championship long ago. What’s new is the $3.6 million in earnings that the FedExCup points leader grabs from a purse of $20 million.
