The golf world saw its excitement at an all-time high as the first leg of the FedEx Cup playoffs came to an end this Sunday. While many hoped to dominate the golf course at TPC Southwind, only one person managed to come out on top, taking home a cut of the whopping $20 million purse. And that man is none other than 43-year-old Lucas Glover.

Leading the scoreboard till the end of the tournament, the veteran golfer was able to keep his momentum as he followed his win at the Wyndham Championship with another victory. His triumph brought great happiness to the golf community as the PGA Tour pro was in high spirits after adding his name to an elusive list of people in the sport.

Lucas Glover wins the 2023 FedEx St. Jude Championship

Glover was able to pull off a magnificent performance at the playoffs despite seeing his lead slide past him on the last day of the 2023 FedEx St. Jude Championship. The hot day in Memphis saw an even fiercer show as the champ fought desperately for his win against Patrick Cantlay to claim the title for the second consecutive week.

Moreover, Glover became the third player aged 43 or older to win back-to-back on the PGA Tour in the last 40 years, a feat even the legendary Tiger Woods couldn’t achieve. The exemplary golfer had won 7 times consecutively on the tour in his 30s during the 2006-07 season.

Glover couldn’t even believe it when the interviewer mentioned the statistic to him, claiming he would have “hired a therapist” for the people who said the same thing to the pro before his win.

The 43-year-old entered the field drained after his recent win at Sedgefield. Nevertheless, he was determined to “keep fighting” even if things were not in favor. Continuing on, he said, “Closing holes here aren’t easy birdies and aren’t easy pars really under pressure, so it was just keep fighting, stay close, stay close, and I was fortunate to get in a playoff,” he said, while the PGA Tour’s social media team appropriately captioned the post “last man standing.”

Glover’s rise in the FedEx Rankings

The American pro golfer was able to propel himself up at the FedEx rankings with his win at the playoffs in Memphis. With the sixth win on the PGA Tour, he occupied the 4th place just behind Rory McIlroy and secured an advantage for the grand finale to be held at the East Lake Golf Club.

In an interview after the win, the golfer mentioned how his hard work helped him clinch the much-needed victory. “You just work hard because you never know when it can turn, and it’s turned very quickly for me. Luckily I’ve been in a good frame of mind to take advantage of it,” he said.
