The PGA TOUR will be back in the United States this week after a two-week stint in Mexico. With just two tournaments remaining in the FedExCup Fall, players are focused on improving their status for next season by earning critical points and possibly even claiming a huge victory, like 19-year-old Blades Brown did last week, becoming the youngest winner on the PGA TOUR since 1938.
This week’s tournament is a brand-new event and will feature a purse of $6 million, with the winner earning $1.08 million and 500 FedExCup Fall Points. The top 100 in the FedExCup Fall Standings will earn fully exempt status for 2027, while players ranked 51-60 will earn entry into the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and The Genesis Invitational through the Aon Next 10. This week’s event is the penultimate tournament in the FedExCup Fall, which comes to a close next week at The RSM Classic.
The inaugural Austin Championship will take place at Fazio Canyons Course at Omni Barton Creek Resort & Spa and will be the first time the PGA TOUR has visited the Austin area since the 2023 WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play. Ben James, who lost in a playoff to Brown at the World Wide Technology Championship last week, is the betting favorite coming into the week, just ahead of Jackson Koivun, Doug Ghim, and Brown, with Chris Kirk rounding out the top five.
