Jackson Koivun's first PGA Tour win lifts him to 70th in FedEx Cup

Jackson Koivun 3M Open FedEx Cup Rocket Classic Aldrich Potgieter

Jackson Koivun, 21, captured his inaugural PGA Tour victory at the 3M Open, posting a bogey‑free final round of 66 to finish 25‑under 259 and win by three strokes over world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler. It was Koivun's third start as a professional and moved him into the No. 70 spot in the FedEx Cup rankings, the cutoff point for qualifying for the playoffs. He marked the triumph with a low‑key celebration, spending time fishing at the TPC Twin Cities course.

Defending champion Aldrich Potgieter expressed disappointment that the Rocket Classic, played at the newly renovated Detroit Golf Club, will have its final edition this week and will not return for the 2027 season. Potgieter, like Koivun, is focused on staying inside the top‑70 FedEx Cup positions, with the Rocket Classic and the Wyndham Championship remaining as the last regular‑season chances to secure a playoff berth.
