Notes
Talor Gooch won The RSM Classic by three strokes, earning his first career PGA TOUR victory in his 104th start at the age of 30 years, 7 days. Gooch became the second first-time winner on TOUR of the season (Lucas Herbert, Butterfield Bermuda Championship) and seventh first-time winner of The RSM Classic.
Gooch held the outright lead after the second and third rounds. With the win, he moved to No. 1 in the FedExCup standings for the first time in his PGA TOUR career.
The scoring average of 66.31 on the Seaside Course in the first round was the lowest scoring average on a single course in a single PGA TOUR round since the 2003 American Express (66.28, Indian Wells).
Defending champion Robert Streb missed the cut.
