In the blink of an eye, the PGA Tour regular season is at its finish line. With only four rounds remaining in players’ quests to make the FedEx Cup Playoffs, the 2025 Wyndham Championship will once again serve as the season finale and the grounds on which competitors will jostle for postseason positioning.
With only the top 70 players making their way into the FedEx Cup Playoffs, the Wyndham Championship has seen an influx in big names on the tee sheet. Players such as Rickie Fowler and Tony Finau have found their footings in recent weeks to climb inside the cutoff point, and they can lock up their spots in the St. Jude Championship on their own volition with finishes of 23rd for Finau and 12th-place or better for Fowler.
As Fowler and Finau look to punch their tickets into the playoffs, others, such as Matt Fitzpatrick, Hideki Matsuyama and Jordan Spieth, look to make a move well inside the top 50 to qualify for the BMW Championship and ultimately all of the signature events in 2026.
2025 FedEx Cup Playoffs: Jordan Spieth, Xander Schauffele among big names on bubbles as postseason approaches
Patrick McDonald
While attention drifts to these names, further down the FedEx Cup standings, a bubble is about to burst with the volume of players vying for the final spot in Memphis. As it stands, Matti Schmid is the official bubble boy at No. 70 in the season-long race, five FedEx Cup points clear of Nicolai Højgaard, who is the first man out.
Højgaard has a reasonable path inside the top 70, but the same cannot be said for the likes of Adam Scott (No. 85), who needs at least a two-way tie for third-place, and former tournament champion Tom Kim (No. 89), who need at least a solo third-place finish.

Odds via DraftKings Sportsbook
- Matt Fitzpatrick (20-1): The Englishman was just inside the top 80 in the FedEx Cup standings at the end of May and has since experienced a strong summer to remember. Fitzpatrick has found his groove with four straight top-20 finishes, including a nice run over in Europe that included back-to-back T4 finishes at the Scottish Open and The Open. He has jumped to No. 43 in the season-long race in the process and looks to sure up his place inside the top 50 this week in what will be his first start at Sedgefield since 2018.
- Ben Griffin (25-1): He putted poorly at the John Deere Classic and drove it just as bad at The Open. Missing two straight cuts for the first time since March, Griffin will aim to regain his summer form that consisted of a win at the Charles Schwab Challenge, a runner-up result at the Memorial and top-10 finishes in the middle two major championships. The former North Carolina Tar Heel has finishes of solo fourth and T7 in his three Wyndham Championship appearances.
- Keegan Bradley (25-1): Over the last three months, no one has been better in this field than the U.S. Ryder Cup captain. Bradley tops the charts in terms of total strokes gained and strokes gained tee to green, where he ranks inside the top 10 in all three strokes-gained categories. The kicker remains his putter, but as shown at the Travelers Championship, Bradley can take down any field should it prove cooperative.
- Aaron Rai (28-1)
- Jordan Spieth (30-1): While it may surprise some, Spieth trails Bradley in total strokes gained as a well-rounded nature to his game has emerged in recent starts. The three-time major champion continues to drive the ball beautifully, and the short game is beginning to make some serious in roads. Outside of a playoff loss to Patrick Reed in 2013, Spieth does not have the best run of form at Sedgefield Country Club throughout his career. He came to this tournament looking to solidify his place in the postseason last year and missed the cut.
- Hideki Matsuyama (30-1): Since winning the first week of the season, Matsuyama has failed to march his name inside the top 10 on the leaderboard of any tournament. The good news is he has been close in recent weeks with a T16 at The Open and T13 at the Rocket Classic. His iron play continues to thrive, and the putter has emerged from a lull that defined his spring. The man from Japan will go as far as his driver will take him given the need to play out of the short grass at this Donald Ross design.
- Akshay Bhatia (30-1)
- Si Woo Kim (30-1)
- Robert MacIntyre (30-1)
- Lucas Glover (35-1)
