Jason Day has set his sights on the Presidents Cup after narrowly missing the Tour Championship. The Aussie failed to qualify for the final FedEx Cup playoff following a disappointing outing at the BMW Championship. Entering the tournament ranked 25th in the FedEx Cup standings, Day struggled with his game at the BMW Championship and finished in a tie for 33rd place, ultimately missing a spot in the top 30 of the FedEx Cup standings.
Following the 2024 BMW Championship, only PGA Tour players in the top 30 qualify for the Tour Championship. Day’s 33rd-place finish means he will miss next week’s event.
Jason Day recently took to his X (formerly Twitter) account to share his future plans following his FedEx Cup playoffs exit. He expressed gratitude to his fans for their support and stated that he is looking forward to the upcoming Presidents Cup.
“Gutted to have the season come to end but thank you to all the fans and sponsors throughout the year! On to the @presidentscup@presidentscupintlteam,” he wrote.
Notably, with the conclusion of the BMW Championship, the six automatic qualifiers for the Presidents Cup from both the USA and International teams have been out. Jason Day secured the fourth spot in the standings and has qualified for the upcoming Presidents Cup to represent the International Team alongside Hideki Matsuyama, Tom Kim, Sungjae Im, Adam Scott, and Byeong Hun An.
The 2024 edition of the team event will take place from September 26 to 29 at The Royal Montreal Golf Club.
