2010 Winner of The Tour Championship
Though the FedEx Cup playoffs have been criticized a whole lot since its’ inception, the final event of the playoffs, The Tour Championship, pretty much always gives us some interesting storylines and finishes. That was the case today, as it came down to one putt for Jim Furyk, and the veteran dropped in the par putt on 18 to hold off Luke Donald, and win the tournament. But that wasn’t all. Furyk’s win also put him at the top of the FedEx Cup standings, and he is your 2010 FedEx Cup winner.
2009 Winner of The Tour
Championship
Phil Mickelson had the
smaller check and felt like the biggest winner. Tiger
Woods was congratulated after he finished second in the
Tour Championship.
It was the ninth time that golf's two biggest stars
finished 1-2 in a tournament. Never have they shared the
spotlight, each going home with a trophy that was
meaningful in its own way. Mickelson capped off a tumultuous summer at home with a
spectacular rally at East Lake, closing with a 5-under
65 to go from four shots behind to a three-shot victory.
2008 Winner of The Tour Championship
Camilo Villegas made up a five-shot deficit in the final
round to win the Tour Championship, closing with a
4-under 66 and beating Sergio Garcia on the first
playoff hole with a two-putt par.
Villegas had gone 85 starts on the PGA Tour without
winning, but Sunday was his second victory in a row.
The 26-year-old Colombian wound up second in the FedEx
Cup behind Vijay Singh, who only had to complete the
Tour Championship to capture the $10 million prize.
Villegas, who should move to No. 6 in the world ranking,
earned $1.26 million for winning the Tour Championship
and $3 million in bonus money for his second-place
finish in the FedEx Cup.
2007 Winner of The Tour Championship
In 2007, Tiger Woods was
able to win 2 trophies in one tournament. Tiger took
home both the Tour Championship and the FedEx Cup. Woods
shot a final-round 66 to win by eight shots and claim
the $1.26 million first prize at East Lake and the $10
million in deferred compensation for winning the
inaugural FedEx Cup. It was his seventh victory of 2007
and the 61st of his career, moving him one behind Arnold
Palmer and three behind Ben Hogan.
