The 125 PGA Tour players who got their 2020-21 cards, qualified for FedEx Cup playoffs

FOLLOW: iHEART | TUNEIN


The 2019-20 PGA Tour regular season concluded with the end of the Wyndham Championship, with 125 players both earning spots in the FedEx Cup playoffs and locked up their PGA Tour cards and status for the 2020-21 season, which begins immediately after the FedEx Cup champion is crowned at the Tour Championship.

Only players finishing in the top 125 in FedEx Cup points retain their cards by getting into the FedEx Cup playoffs. Ranking on the money list doesn't matter.

The players who finish 126th through 200th in the regular season standing are typically eligible to compete in the Korn Ferry Tour Finals, a three-event series comprising those 75 players and the top 75 players on the Korn Ferry Tour regular season money list. Through that series, 25 PGA Tour cards are decided and the priority order of 50 PGA Tour spots are determined. However, that's not the case this year.

This season, players who were in the top 125 category and finish outside the top 125 this year will go down to a category for players who finished 126th through 150th in FedEx Cup points. There will be no Korn Ferry Tour graduates, and the combined category will be subject to the PGA Tour reshuffle throughout the season.

Players who finished 126th through 150th on the regular season FedEx Cup points list and money list earn conditional PGA Tour status for next season.

Of course, players who have better status through wins in PGA Tour-sanctioned events retain that status.

Non-members who would have earned enough FedEx Cup points to qualify for the playoffs also earn membership for next season, with Will Gordon doing so with 304 non-member FedEx Cup points.
