The FedEx Cup season long title has seen multiple iterations and is set to change again in 2028 with a new match play format. These four elite players conquered whatever format they faced that year to claim the season long prize and the large financial reward that comes with that. Use their advice to play a little better in your next round.

1. Spieth teaches different chipping techniques

We flash back to 2013, two years before Jordan Spieth won the 2015 FedEx Cup, to pick up some short game keys from a young Spieth. Jordan is great at teaching his technique and how he practices different shots around the green. Focus on maintaining a square lead wrist to chip it like Spieth.

4. Patrick Cantlay’s driving strategy

Patrick Cantlay details his two types of driver swings, fit and smash. He works backwards from the green-to-tee to decide which drive is needed for that hole. Try this technique to manage risk off the tee, find more fairways, and shoot lower scores.
