The fourth tournament of the PGA Tour's FedEx Cup Fall schedule, the 2024 Shriners Children's Open, concluded on Sunday, October 21. J.T. Poston won the tournament by one stroke over Doug Ghim.
Since J.T. Poston had finished 41st in the FedExCup standings, he didn't receive any FedExCup Fall points. However, many other players who played at the TPC Summerlin in Las Vegas, Nevada, made big movements in the FedEx Cup Fall standings.
Let's take a look at the 5 golfers who made big movement in FedEx Cup Fall standings after the 2024 Shriners Children's Open:
