9 big names who failed to qualify for the FedEx Cup Playoffs

72. Gary Woodland

If anyone deserved to make it, it’s former US Open champion Woodland, who has not long returned to the PGA Tour after having a brain tumor removed. He was 75th last week, and needed a top-25 at the Wyndham to stand a chance. He did his part, finishing T23, but other results didn’t go his way and he will just miss out.

73. Nicolai Hojgaard

After a fairly dismal 2025, a T4 at the Genesis Scottish Open and a T14 at The Open will have been a welcome boost for the elder Hojgaard twin. But a T55 at the Wyndham Championship ended his PGA Tour season.

75. Keith Mitchell

The best-dressed man on tour’s season has been cut short. He was 72nd going into the Wyndham and needing at the very least a top-50 finish. He missed the cut and dropped three places in the standings.

85. Rasmus Hojgaard

It has not been a great year for either of the Hojgaard twins. Rasmus – who was 82nd in the race for the Playoffs – to qualify, he needed a two-way tie for 4th at worst at Sedgefield. He finished T34.

90. Adam Scott

The Australian was influential in getting the FedEx Cup format changed, but he may not even get to experience it first hand. He went to Sedgefield in 85th, he left in 90th. Still, at least the major record is still going strong.

92. Matt Wallace

Wallace needed a second top-3 finish in a row to stand a chance of scraping into the top 70. In the end, a T27 was good showing but not enough. The Englishman will now concentrate on a final push for a spot in Luke Donald’s Ryder Cup team.

93. Joel Dahmen

Fresh off the shock split with longtime caddie Geno Bonnalie, Dahmen looked good at the Wyndham when he opened with a 61. But a Saturday 73 killed his chances and a tie for 15th wasn’t enough.

94. Tom Kim

Languishing down in 89th at the start of the week, the Presidents Cup star needed to find something from somewhere to prolong his season. Unfortunately, Kim had to withdraw following an opening-round 73.

111. Max Homa

Homa’s struggles have been well documented, so it should come as little surprise he was as low as 106th going into the week. The American, who was 7th in the world barely 18 months ago, needed a victory at the Wyndham. Instead, he missed the cut and dropped five spots.
