Are there any changes to the FedExCup Playoffs this year?

This year’s iteration of the playoffs will see a major procedural change. The TOUR Championship will be played as a 72-hole event with everyone starting at even par – just like every other tournament on the schedule. This is a departure from the “starting strokes” format, which was instituted in 2019 and gave players a stroke advantage based on their success during the regular season and playoffs.
