PGA Tour players in position to earn spot in 2024 signature events

2023 Zozo Championship

Only three events remain in the FedEx Cup Fall, and there’s plenty of incentive for those who finish 51-60 in the FexEx Cup Standings.

While everyone who finished the 2022-23 regular season in the top 70 qualified for the playoffs, only those who made the BMW Championship, the top 50, earned spots in every signature event for the 2024 season. Those finishing 51-70 were guaranteed spots in all full-field events, but it’s going to be harder to earn spots in signature events next year.

However, players who finish 51-60 after the FedEx Cup Fall earn spots in the first two signature events of the 2024 season: the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and the Genesis Invitational.

Here’s a look at which players are on the verge of punching their ticket into the first pair of 2024 signature events.
