Charles Schwab Cup
From 2001 through 2015 , points were earned for thousands of dollars earned in top-ten finishes at tournaments . From 2008 to 2015 , points were doubled at majors and the Charles Schwab Cup Championship . Since 2016 , the Charles Schwab Cup has used a playoff format similar to the FedEx Cup playoffs on the regular PGA Tour , though with three total events instead of four on the regular tour . Changes to the format are : [ 3 ] During the regular season , points are based on dollars earned , regardless of the player 's finish in a given tournament . No bonus is awarded for wins in majors . The top 72 players on the money list will qualify for the first playoff event . Additionally , a `` wild card '' playoff berth will be awarded to a golfer who finishes in the top 10 of the last regular-season event , the SAS Championship , and is not within the top 72 after the tournament . ( If more than one player outside the top 72 finishes in the top 10 at the SAS Championship , the highest finisher among these players will qualify . ) During the first two playoff events , points are earned as in the regular season , except the winner earns double points . The playoff field is cut to 54 after the first playoff event and 36 after the second , with the survivors advancing to the Charles Schwab Cup Championship . Prior to the Charles Schwab Cup Championship , the points totals are reset . All 36 qualifiers will have a theoretical chance to win the Charles Schwab Cup , and each golfer in the top five can win the Charles Schwab Cup by winning the final event , no matter how the rest of the field performs . The top five win annuities . Annuities involved in ties are divided amongst the tied players .
