The PGA Tour's FedEx Cup playoffs begin next week at the FedEx St. Jude Championship.
World No. 2 Rory McIlroy won't be a part of it.
The reigning Masters champion wasn't in the St. Jude field released by the PGA Tour on Friday. The top 70 in the FedEx Cup standings after the conclusion of this week's Wyndham Championship will qualify for the event, so with McIlroy's absence, the field in Memphis, Tennessee, next week will stand at 69.
McIlroy finished second-to-last last year at the St. Jude, an event he's never won. He had previously indicated he wouldn't play the tournament this year.
