11 first-timers made the FedEx Cup Playoffs in 2026. See the list
These 11 players have qualified for the FedEx Playoffs for the first time in their PGA Tour careers.
In the 2026 FedEx Cup Playoffs, 11 players competed in the event for the first time. Jackson Koivun, a 21-year-old, secured his spot as the final qualifier in the regular season standings. The FedEx Cup Playoffs consist of three rounds: the FedEx St. Jude Championship, the BMW Championship, and the Tour Championship. This year, the field was reduced to 50 players for the BMW Championship in St. Louis before reaching the prestigious Tour Championship at East Lake in Atlanta.
The 11 debutants are guaranteed to play at least the first round of the FedEx St. Jude Championship in Memphis, Tennessee this week.
