List of Fedex Cup Winners By Year (2007-2023)

As a passionate fan of the PGA Tour, I’ve followed the Fedex Cup since its inception in 2007.

The FedEx Cup is a prestigious annual golf tournament that culminates in the crowning of the FedEx Cup Champion.

The tournament consists of a series of events throughout the year, with players earning points based on their performance in each event.

At the end of the season, the top 70 players qualify for the FedEx Cup Playoffs, where they compete in a series of tournaments to determine the winner.

Unlike the Major Golf Tournaments, the Fedex Cup is a culmination of the entire golf season. (Combination of all tournaments played).

Fedex points fluctuate in value based on the tournament played and final scoring positions of golfers.

Three Tournaments make up the Fedex Cup Playoffs at the end of the season:

  • FedEx St. Jude Championship (Top 70 in point rankings)
  • BMW Championship (Top 50 in point rankings)
  • Tour Championship (Top 30 in point rankings)

Most Wins:

  • Rory McIlroy – 3 (2016, 2019, 2022)
  • Tiger Woods – 2 (2007, 2009)
