The conclusion of the BMW Championship saw the number of players in contention for the FedEx Cup drop from 50 to just 30. Some of the biggest names in the sport have failed to qualify for the finale - let us take a look.
🏌️Brian Harman: Harman’s career highlight will remain his victory at the 2023 Open for the time being, after he had appeared in reasonable shape to make the field for the East Lake event, only to miss out by the narrowest of margins.
He began the BMW Championship 29th in the FedEx Cup standings, but he could only finish 25th at the tournament to drop just beneath the cut-off, 29 points behind the man who claimed the final Tour Championship place, Justin Thomas.
🏌️Jason Day: Just two places beneath Harman in the FedEx Cup standings is former World No 1 Jason Day after he began the BMW Championship in 25th. He could only manage a T-33 finish, which wasn’t enough to book his place at East Lake.
🏌️Will Zalatoris: After spending much of 2023 recovering from back surgery, there’s a compelling argument that Zalatoris did well to make it as far as the second of the FedEx Cup Playoffs. A top-six finish would have been enough, but he fell just three shots short of that target.
🏌️Matt Fitzpatrick: The 2022 US Open champion was a place above Zalatoris in the standings as he arrived in Colorado for the BMW Championship, but he got off to a shaky start with a 74 in the opening round before his form began trending in the right direction.
His finish of T-28 fell short of what was required, and he exited the Playoffs 10 places beneath the cut-off for the Tour Championship.
🏌️Max Homa: Homa began the BMW Championship 13 places and 159 points adrift of the cut-off. While a top-five finish would have been enough for him to reach the Tour Championship, it didn’t quite happen for the six-time PGA Tour winner as he finished T-33, leaving him 46th in the standings.
