Russell Henley fires bogey-free 61 to lead Tour Championship by two shots over Scottie Scheffler. Henley gained 6.267 strokes putting at East Lake Golf Club.
Lowry’s 97-footer was the kick start he needed. It also ranks as the longest putt in FedEx Cup Playoffs history, and sixth longest on Tour in the ShotLink era (since 2003).
Just like that, the FedEx Cup Playoffs field is down to 30 players. The 2025 Tour Championship is once again hosting those who were skilled enough to skirt past the first two playoff checkpoints and into the postseason finale where $10 million will be awarded to this week's eventual winner.
Russell Henley hardly missed a putt. Scottie Scheffler hardly missed a fairway. They led a parade of players who seized on the soft conditions at East Lake to begin the race for the Tour Championship and the season-ending FedEx Cup title.
