Along with his winnings, Castillo also gained 10.071 FedExCup points. After gaining those points, Castillo now stands 68th in the FedExCup rankings.
Finishing tied for 51st, Villegas shot eight under par on 276 strokes through the four rounds. He walked away with $21,428 from the purse. To go along with his winnings, Villegas also gained 7.250 FedExCup points, moving up one spot to 194th overall in the rankings.
The lone Gator to miss the cut, Tosti finished three over par on 145 strokes. This was his 15th missed cut of the season, putting him at 36% successful in his career. However, he still moved up a spot to 185th overall.
