Donaldson earns important FedEx Cup points with 67

PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. – Jamie Donaldson clinched Europe’s Ryder Cup victory in Scotland last year.

The 39-year-old Welshman wants to make a mark in big events in the United States this year.

With a 5-under-par 67 Sunday at The Players Championship, Donaldson was tied for sixth when he left the scoring tent at the TPC Sawgrass Stadium Course. He was more interested in the FedEx Cup points than the money his finish would bring in his first full season on the PGA Tour.

“I want to get into these playoffs at the end of the year,” Donaldson said.
