Justin Rose earned $3.6 million as the winner of the 2025 FedEx St. Jude Championship as part of a $20 million purse. The PGA Tour tournament is the first of three in the season-ending FedEx Cup Playoffs. The 45-year-old Rose won the tournament in a playoff against JJ Spaun.
The St. Jude Championship was played from August 7 to August 10 at TPC Southwind in Memphis, Tennessee. The top 50 players in the FedEx Cup standings after the St. Jude will advance in the playoffs and will also earn an additional share of the $100 million bonus fund.
Tommy Fleetwood entered Sunday’s final round in the lead and is looking for his first win on the PGA Tour. He was paired with fellow Englishman Rose, with 2025 major championship winners Scottie Scheffler and JJ Spaun also in contention.
Rose birdied four straight holes to get into the tie for the lead with Spaun, as Fleetwood dropped out of first. Fleetwood and Scheffler finished in a tie for third.
Scheffler entered the St. Jude Championship at the top of the playoff standings. Rory McIlroy, who ended the regular season in 2nd, did not play in the tournament. Scheffler won the FedEx Cup in 2024 and won the PGA Championship and The Open Championship in 2025. McIlroy won The Masters, while Spaun won the U.S. Open.
