Villegas' first two PGA Tour wins came in 2008, both of them being FedEx Cup Playoff events. He won the BMW Championship at Bellerive Country Club in Missouri.

A few weeks later, Villegas won the Tour Championsip at the esteemed East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta. Villegas defeated Sergio Garcia on the first playoff hole to win the event. At the time, the winner of the Tour Championship did not always win the FedEx Cup. Despite winning the tournament, Vijay Singh won the 2008 FedEx Cup.
