Jason Day, Adam Scott and Davis will be Australia’s representatives in the tour’s penultimate event of the season at Castle Pines Golf Club, worth $US20 million, while Min Woo Lee’s rookie season in America is done.

The players came to the final round of the Fedex St Jude Championship looking to secure their place for next week, needing to finish inside the top 50 on the Fedex Cup standings.

A top 50 in the Fedex Cup has the added bonus of a spot in all next year’s signature events.

Japan’s Hideki Matsuyama closed out the win today, with Day finishing tied-22^nd to sit at 25^th on the standings, Scott rallying with a 68 to finish tied-18^th and keep himself at 41^st overall, and Lee jumping a few spots to tied-22^nd with a closing 66 that was not quite enough to push the West Australian into the field for next week.

He completed his debut season ranked 60^th on the standings.

But it was Davis who had the drama-filled day, finishing with a potentially-calamitous double bogey at the 72^nd hole that left him vulnerable.

Ultimately a late fade-out by Tom Kim, who finished bogey-double-double, pushed Davis back in at No. 49 in the standings and he will now tee it up next week as well as having a start in the big events in 2025.

“I’ve done it every year for the last three years,” said the Sydneysider. “I feel like I’m constantly in this position where you’ve had a good season but still a little low missing next year, which doesn’t feel right, and it’s extra frustrating right now that I finished the way I did after playing the way I did all the way up until that point.

“I had a feeling if I parred the last, I would have been fine.”

Elsewhere lefty Richard Green came close to winning his first tournament on the PGA Tour Champions in Canada, a bogey at the 17^th hole costing him dearly.

Green finished outright second and picked up more than $US200,000 in prizemoney. It was his fourth runner-up finish in his first season.

On the PGA Tour Americas, Australian Grant Booth was runner-up while on the LPGA Tour, Gabriela Ruffels logged a top-10 at the Scottish Open ahead of this week’s AIG Women’s Open at St Andrews, the final major of the women’s season.
