This week’s event marked his 12th start in a FedExCup Playoffs event. His only other top-10 finish among those starts was a T4 at the 2015 Deutsche Bank Championship. At No. 7 in the FedExCup standings beginning the week, Reed was the highest-ranked player in this week’s field without a win this season. Reed has now come from behind in the final round to win on two occasions. At the 2015 Tournament of Champions, he trailed Hideki Matsuyama and Jimmy Walker by two strokes after 54 holes.

Page 3 of 7 In the 50-year history of The Barclays, a player has come from behind in the final round to win 25 times now, including Hunter Mahan in 2014 and Jason Day in 2015. In 1998 and 2011, The Barclays was reduced to 54 holes due to weather. On 21 of 40 occasions now, a winner has emerged after trailing headed into the final round of a PGA TOUR event this season. This marked the third time Reed has held a 36-hole lead outright and gone on to win. Among others, he joins Jack Nicklaus, Phil Mickelson and Sam Snead of those who won their first three events leading alone after 36 holes. Reed was making his 25th start of the 2015-16 PGA TOUR Season this week, with his The Barclays win marking his 10th top-10 finish of the season. With 12, only Dustin Johnson has more. Before this week, Reed’s closest brushes with victory came in the form of runner-up finishes at the Tournament of Champions and Valero Texas Open. Reed becomes the 13th different player to win in his 20s on the PGA TOUR this season (16 wins), compared to 22 different players in their 30s and two different players in their 40s. 2015-16 starts-made cuts-top-10s-wins: 25-22-10-1 PGA TOUR career starts-made cuts-top-10s-wins: 121-92-23-5 Reed’s scoring breakdown for the week: Par-3s (+2), Par-4s (-1), Par-5s (-10) About Patrick Reed: Height: 6-0 Weight: 200 Birthdate: August 5, 1990 Birthplace: San Antonio, Texas Residence: Spring, Texas Education: Augusta University Turned Pro: 2011 Q School: 2012 Joined PGA TOUR: 2013 Patrick Reed - Statistics: Driving Accuracy 31/56 Greens in Regulation 50/72 Total Putts 118 Driving Distance 302.8 (average) Patrick Reed – Strokes Gained Off the Tee: +0.878 (38th) Approach the Green: +5.893 (6th) Putting: +2.353 (27th) Total: +11.893 (1st) PGA TOUR 112 PGA TOUR Boulevard | Ponte Vedra Beach, FL 32082 | tel 904.285-3700 web PGATOUR.COM Together, anything’s possible.

He moves to No. 15 in FedExCup points. O’Hair’s T2 showing marks his best since losing in a playoff to Jordan Spieth at the 2015 Valspar Championship. O’Hair hit 12 of 14 fairways, 12 of 18 greens and needed 26 putts (his fewest of the week) to complete his round Sunday. To earn his way back into this season’s Playoffs, O’Hair posted one top-10 finish (Shell Houston Open/T10) among five top-25 showings. He missed three cuts in his last four starts prior to this week (Wyndham Championship/T22). Prior to last season, O’Hair had struggled and not made it to the Playoffs since 2012. He finished 170th and 160th in FedExCup points in 2013 and 2014, respectively. O’Hair was making his eighth start in The Barclays in the FedExCup era, with this week’s T2 finish being his first top-20 showing. In 22 FedExCup Playoffs starts, O’Hair has now collected seven top-10 finishes. O’Hair, a four-time winner on the PGA TOUR, was in search of his first win since the 2011 RBC Canadian Open. Emiliano Grillo PGA TOUR rookie Emiliano Grillo birdied his 72nd hole to close with a 2-under 69 and claim a share of second place with Sean O’Hair. With the finish, Argentina’s Grillo jumps from No. 34 to No. 6 in the FedExCup standings, making himself a lock for the TOUR Championship.
