Notes
Rory McIlroy successfully defended his title at THE CJ CUP in South Carolina, earning his 23rd career PGA TOUR victory in his 221st start at the age of 33 years, 5 months, 19 days.
With the win, McIlroy moved to No. 1 in the Official World Golf Ranking for the ninth time in his career and first since July 2020. It was the second time in McIlroy’s career that he has successfully defended a title on TOUR, with both coming in 2022 (RBC Canadian Open, THE CJ CUP). McIlroy became the second reigning FedExCup champion to win his season debut, joining Tiger Woods (2008 Farmers Insurance Open).
Kurt Kitayama finished runner-up for the third time in a span of 14 starts.
THE CJ CUP was played in the United States for the third consecutive season (2020 and 2021 in Las Vegas).
