Xander Schauffele ended his rookie season by winning the Tour Championship. He became the first PGA Tour rookie to win the Tour Championship since it began in 1987. Tiger Woods won the FedEx Cup and Phil Mickelson won the Tour Championship in 2009. But it was enough to finish at 12-under 268, a victory worth $3.75 million, $2 million of that for finishing third in the FedEx Cup. Spieth closed with a 67 and tied for seventh, earning a $3-million bonus for finishing second in the FedEx Cup.
