The final week of the PGA Tour regular season is here.
The Wyndham Championship will officially end the 2026 campaign this week at Sedgefield Country Club in North Carolina, where golfers will have one last chance to make a move up the FedExCup standings before the playoffs.

The top 70 golfers in the standings after this week will automatically earn entry into next week’s FedEx St. Jude Championship in Tennessee, which marks the first of the three playoff events.
Many of the biggest names in the sport, like top-ranked Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy, for example, are already more than safe for the first cut. Cameron Young is the betting favorite this week, too, though he’s safely in at No. 3 in the standings and one of just three golfers with more than 3,000 FedExCup points on the year.
But others, like Brooks Kopeka, will need to make a massive move. Koepka is entering the week at No. 86 in the standings, and will have to finish solo fourth or better to earn a spot in the postseason.
Here’s everything you need to know to keep up with the FedExCup bubble this week in North Carolina.

Jackson Koivun is perhaps the most interesting name among this group right on the bubble. The 21-year-old former Auburn star picked up his first career win last month at the 3M Open. Koivun fended off Scottie Scheffler in Minnesota while doing so in what was just his third start as a professional, too.

After Koivun’s T31 finish at the Rocket Classic last week, he’s now sitting at No. 70. He’s actually listed at +1800 to win on BetMGM as of Tuesday afternoon, which is better than everyone but Young.
While many of the biggest names in golf aren’t competing this week, just about everyone on the bubble is in North Carolina. Golfers from No. 61 (Nick Taylor) to No. 112 (Rico Hoey) in the standings are in the field.
The winner of this week’s event will earn 500 points. That means that even Danny Willett can sneak his way into the playoffs. But Willett, at No. 182 in the standings, will have to lift the trophy on Sunday night to do so.
