    Notes[edit]

    1. ^ The number in parentheses after each winner's name is the number of Nationwide Tour events they had won up to and including that tournament. This information is only shown for Nationwide Tour members. It is rare for someone to accumulate many wins on the Nationwide Tour as success at this level usually leads to promotion to the PGA Tour.
    2. ^ ANZ − PGA Tour of Australasia.
    3. ^ Flanagan earned immediate promotion to the PGA Tour, as this was his third win of the season.[2]
