Despite not playing in the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am, former Tech golfer Johnson Wagner remained in second place on both the PGA Tour’s money list and in the FedEx Cup rankings.
Wagner has played in four tournaments this season, making the cut in all four and winning the Sony Open in Hawaii. In three of those four, he has recorded top-10 finishes. For the season, he has earned $1.586 million, which ranks behind only Kyle Stanley’s $1.793 million on the list. He’s also behind Stanley in FedEx Cup points.
Another former Tech golfer, Brendon de Jonge, ranks 35th on the money list with $302,400 in earnings and 31st in the FedEx Cup rankings. De Jonge has one top-10 finish and two top-25 finishes this season.
Both Wagner and de Jonge, who also did not play in the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am, are scheduled to play in the Northern Trust Open held at Riviera Country Club near Los Angeles on Feb. 16-19. The $6.6 million purse is one of the largest on the Tour, excluding the majors.
