Auckland golfer Ryan Fox has qualified for the PGA Tour’s rich season-ending tournament – but only just.<\/p>\n
Fox finished in a tie for 47th at the penultimate tournament – the BMW Championship in Missouri.<\/p>\n
The result means he ranked 30th in the FedEx Cup standings, with the top 30 getting to play this week’s $67 million Tour Championship in Atlanta.<\/p>\n
Fox started the BMW Championship in 25th position in the overall standings and during the final round jumped between 27th and 30th.<\/p>\n
He then had to wait the last couple of hours of the tournament to learn his fate and thanks to some other results going his way he grabbed the last spot and will play the Tour Championship for the first time.<\/p>\n
American Wyndham Clark won the BMW Championship.<\/p>\n
The Tour Championship winner will pocket $17 million, while 30th will receive $595,000.<\/p>\n
American Scottie Scheffler took the $36 million bonus for securing the number one ranking heading into the FedEx play-offs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Auckland golfer Ryan Fox has qualified for the PGA Tour’s rich season-ending tournament – but only just.
