Taylor Pendrith had a remarkable day as he secured his first PGA Tour victory at the CJ Cup Byron Nelson. The win means he will have the opportunity to compete in the final three signature events of the season, including the Wells Fargo Championship, Memorial Tournament, and Travelers Championship. Ben Kohles and Alex Noren also had a strong showing, finishing second and third, respectively, at TPC Craig Ranch.
Chad Ramey finished just outside of the top five in the Swing 5 rankings, while the Aon Next 10 group had minimal changes since the RBC Heritage event. Shane Lowry moved into the top 10 of the Next 10 rankings after winning Zurich with Rory McIlroy. The current top 10 players in FedExCup points who did not finish in the top 50 last season joined Ludvig Åberg, Matthieu Pavon, Stephan Jaeger, Will Zalatoris, Akshay Bhatia, Jake Knapp, Justin Thomas, Christiaan Bezuidenhout and Austin Eckroat in this category.
The top five players who accumulated the most points from the Corales Puntacana Championship, Zurich Classic and Nelson were Taylor Pendrith (Swing 5), Ben Kohles (Swing 5), Alex Noren (Next Ten), Billy Horschel (Swing 5) and Kevin Tway (Next Ten). These players qualified for upcoming tournaments based on their combined point totals. Tournament winners are prioritized in both categories.
