Tranlate this title FedEx Cup, 80 million as answered by LIV Golf in spanish

LIV Golf entered the stage in 2022 like an elephant in a cacharrería, striving tirelessly without importing immediate or future consequences, endorsed as it was with the trumpet of thousands of petrolars proceeding from the Soberano Saudí Fund (PIF).

FedEx Cup, future

LIV Golf is now experiencing moments of uncertainty after the PIF announced that it is abandoning the boat to prove that its disproportionate reversal, more than 4,300 million euros in five years, does not report the income it was hoping for. Another investor is assured, but on economic growth you will be very happy with the enormous dinner of the last few years.

Sea like sea, that money to be paid, with multi-million dollar chips as big as Jon Rahm, Bryson DeChambeau, Dustin Johnson or Brooks Koepka and prizes of four thousand dollars for any winner of any current tournament, will alter the balance in the traditional circuits, also obligatory at the final increase your prizes to please your players as they respond to the constant siren songs of the Saudi Superliga.

Much before the appearance of LIV Golf, the American PGA tour, the most prestigious in the world, it took a huge step forward in its economic prizes with the introduction in 2007 of the FedEx Cup playoff, a format that also made its mark in recent years before the competition of the Saudi circuit.

Led in 2026 to its 20th edition, the FedEx Cup playoff features these games in Memphis, the starting point of a total of 80 million dollars (34.7 million euros) between the three final tournaments, 20 in the St. Jude Championship (13-16 August), 20 in the BMW Championship (20-23 August) and 40 in the Tour Championship (27-30 August), from which the final championship will raise the ‘gordo’ of 10 million dollars, 8.7 million euros at the current exchange rate.

The 70 best golfers from the regular season on the PGA Tour will begin the playoff with the goal of reaching the top-50 to advance to the BMW Championship, from which the 30 best golfers will advance to the Tour Championship in Atlanta and will crown the season’s No. 1 final.

Scottie Scheffler, the world nº 1, also entered the playoffs as the nº 1 of the FedEx Cup after the regular phase, with 4,123 points, 794 more than his immediate pursuer, Matt Fitzpatrick (3,329). Cameron Young ranks third with 3,161. Justin Rose defends the St. Jude Championship title.

Tommy Fleetwood (now 9th overall), the No. 1 in 2025, has converted his goal into the first golfer capable of revalidating his crown. Rory McIlroy, three-time champion (2016, 2019, 2022) and Tiger Woods (2007, 2009) are the only players who have won the FedEx Cup more than once. McIlroy now finishes 12th, but Woods takes the time out of the circuit.
