Introduction

Last Update April 23, 2009

We hope everyone enjoyed the thrilling finish at historic East Lake Golf Club, as Camilo Villegas defeated Sergio Garcia on the first playoff hole to secure his victory of THE TOUR Championship, and finish second in the PGA TOUR Playoffs for the FedExCup.  We also want to congratulate our other Champion, Vijay Singh, for joining Tiger Woods as the only other player in history to have his name engraved on the FedExCup.

We are excited to see what is in store for next year as the top-30 in the world return to East Lake in 2009 for the PGA TOUR Playoff Finale!
