Since its inception in 2007, the FedEx Cup has been the pinnacle of the golf season. It’s no surprise that several of the game’s top athletes have wound up hoisting the Cup throughout their careers.
Rory McIlroy has earned the honor three times. Tiger Woods did it twice. Scottie Sheffler did it in 2024. In fact, Scheffler has a chance to make history this year, as no golfer has ever won the FedEx Cup in back-to-back seasons.
Scheffler ended the regular season at the top of the FedEx Cup standings and his biggest competition, McIlroy, will not compete at the St. Jude Championship this weekend, enhancing Scheffler’s Cup odds.
That said, there are still dozens of elite golfers ready to snatch history away from Scheffler’s clutches. Here are the 2025 FedEx Cup standings as TPC Southwind awaits.

How do the FedEx Cup Playoffs work?
The top-70 golfers at the end of the regular season advance to the FedEx Cup Playoffs. After the St. Jude Championship, only the top-50 golfers in the standings advance to the second round of the playoffs, played the following weekend. And only the top-30 in the standings will emerge from the second tournament with a chance to win it all at the Tour Championship the weekend after that.
FedEx Cup points scored during the regular season come into play here with golfers near the top of the standings having much more leeway than golfers teetering on the top-50 mark. Earning top-50 recognition is of the utmost importance, too. It ensures golfers of their eligibility for each of their sport’s eight premier events the following season.
Once the top 30 for the Tour Championship is determined, though, regular season point totals are thrown out the window. The final tournament is a normal four-day event with the outright winner taking the Cup regardless of where they finished during the regular season.
