The final chapter of the 2025 FedExCup Playoffs unfolds at East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta, where 30 players compete in a true stroke-play event. Beginning at even par, each golfer aims to post the lowest 72-hole total. The stakes are sky-high: $10 million to the winner from a $40 million purse, a PGA Tour title, and a five-year exemption through 2030.
All players already earn full Tour status through 2027 and entry into the 2026 Masters, U.S. Open, and Open Championship. Meanwhile, Tommy Fleetwood is not only in the top list but also among the top five. Here’s how the Tour Championship Power Rankings line up as play begins.
