Hadwin to Compete in Fed Ex Cup Playoffs
September 20, 2017 | Men's Golf
Adam Hadwin is one f 30 participants in this weekend's championship.
University of Louisville All-American Adam Hadwin has made quite a name for himself on the PGA Tour, and he has an opportunity to do something special this weekend as one of 30 players who qualified to participate in the 2017 Fed Ex Cup Playoffs.
With the PGA season coming to an end, Hadwin, who finished in 21st place overall, will compete at East Lake in Atlanta, Ga., this weekend.
A native of Canada, Hadwin advanced to the finals after finishing in a tie for 13th place by shooting an 8-under par 276 at the Dell Technologies Championship on Sept. 4. He followed that performance up with a 7-under par to place 40th at the BMW Championship. Â
For this tournament, the scores are reset for all 30 participants. The No. 1 player will still be No. 1, but his points will be reset to 2,000 so that everyone (theoretically) has a chance to win the FedEx Cup by winning this tournament. The point distribution remains similar the first three events. First place gets 2,000 points, second place gets 1,200 and so on.
A purse of $35 million will be distributed to all playoff participants with the winner of the FedEx Cup getting $10 million and the runner up receiving $3 million.
