Snedeker wins Tour Championship and Fedex Cup as McIlroy falters

American Brandt Snedeker heads into his Ryder Cup debut an incredible £7m richer after a day to forget for Rory McIlroy in Atlanta – even though it earned the world number one over £2m.

After 11 successive rounds in the 60s, Northern Ireland’s 23-year-old superstar closed the Tour Championship with a 74 and so missed out on the £6.1m FedEx Cup bonus.
