The 2024 Charles Schwab Cup Playoffs, the three-event postseason on the PGA Tour Champions, are here.
Unlike the PGA Tour’s postseason, the senior ciruit’s playoffs can, and often does, produce one winner at the season finale who’s different from the season-long Charles Schwab Cup race.
A year ago, Steve Stricker enjoyed such a dominant regular season that he was able to skip all three playoff events and still claim the season-long title.
This year, Ernie Els will head into the postseason in the No. 1 spot.
Who qualifies for the Charles Schwab Cup Playoffs?
The top 72 in the season-long race advance to the postseason. Es is No.1 with Steve Alker second, Stephen Ames third, Richard Green fourth and Stricker fifth. Jerry Kelly, who won the regular-season finale, climbed two spots into the top 10. Angel Cabrera, solo fourth at the season finale, had the biggest move up, as he jumped 15 spots to 54th. Lee Janzen, meanwhile, finished in the No. 72 spot, making him final man in the playoffs.
