FIVE UP FOR PGA PLAYER OF YEAR

Patrick Cantlay, pictured, whose Tour Championship victory earned him his first Fedexcup title, is nominated for the PGA Tour's Player of the Year award along with Jon Rahm, Bryson Dechambeau, Collin Morikawa and Harris English. Cantlay's one-shot victory over world No. 1 Rahm at the Tour Championship on Sunday gave him a season-high four wins in 24 events following triumphs at the Zozo Championship, Memorial Tournament and BMW Championship. World No. 4 Cantlay, who has already secured a spot on this year's U.S. Ryder Cup team, recorded seven top-10 finishes during the season. Rahm, meanwhile, led the PGA Tour with 15 top-10 finishes and won his first career major at the U.S. Open. Voting for the honour, known as the Jack Nicklaus Award, will close on Sept. 10, with the winners announced at a later date.
