FedEx Cup Winner 2016: Rory McIlroy’s Prize Money and Final Golf Standings
- Updated: September 26, 2016
Rory McIlroy won the 2016 FedEx Cup, and he earned it in a drama-filled final round at the Tour Championship on Sunday with more at stake than just the tournament title.
He prevailed in a three-way sudden-death playoff against Ryan Moore and Kevin Chappell at East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta.
According to Golf Channel, McIlroy needed to win the tournament to become the FedEx Cup champion; otherwise, Dustin Johnson, who entered the event in first place in the standings, would have accumulated the most points.
The PGA Tour shared a replay of McIlroy’s victorious putt on the fourth playoff hole:
