Impact Novak used rounds of 61 and 62 on Friday and Saturday, respectively, to race out to a six-stroke lead heading into Sunday. He saw his lead cut to three strokes, but Novak pushed his lead back up with three consecutive birdies from holes 12 to 14 to comfortably capture the first PGA Tour win of his career. He gained 8.19 strokes with his putter, which led the field in Vallarta, and he also ranked first in feet of putts made while finishing third in SG: Approach, T6 in bogeys and top-20 in both driving accuracy and SG: Off-the-Tee. Novak's performance moved him up 36 spots to 89th in the FedExCup Fall Standings, with those finishing in the top-100 retaining their PGA Tour full-time cards for 2027.

Ascends to T7 at Wyndham Novak carded a seven-under 63 in the final round of the Wyndham Championship to finish in a five-way tie for seventh.

Impact Novak saved his best round at Sedgefield Country Club for last, ending Sunday with four-straight birdies. He led the field in SG: Around in both the final round and for the tournament, and he also ranked T16 in scrambling, 20th in driving distance and 33rd in both SG: Putting and Off-the-Tee. Novak moved up to 84th in the FedExCup Standings, and while it's not enough to make the playoffs, it puts him in solid position heading into the fall portion of the season, which kicks off Sept. 17 at the Biltmore Championship Asheville.

MC by one stroke at The Open Novak registered a one-under 69 in the second round of The Open Championship but missed the cut by one stroke.

Impact Novak was four-under heading into the final two holes of the second round. He gave himself a shot at making the one-over cut line with an eagle on the par-5 17th, but he couldn't make the birdie he needed on the 18th to qualify for the weekend. Novak's biggest struggles came from his putter in the opening round, when he lost 3.39 strokes on the green. He's missed the cut eight times across 22 tournaments this season, including in three of the four majors, with his T26 at the PGA Championship being the exception. Novak is not listed in the field for next week's 3M Open.

Struggles on greens in Scotland Novak carded a one-over 71 on Sunday at the Genesis Scottish Open to finish one-over and tied for 61st.

Impact Novak opened his week at The Renaissance Club with a four-under 66 on Thursday when he gained 3.21 strokes around the green, but he failed to shoot even-par or better throughout the remainder of the event, falling to dead last among those who made the cut in each of SG: Putting, putts per GIR and total feet of putts made. However, Novak ranked 21st in SG: Tee-to-Green and T22 in GIR percentage. He's fallen to 83rd in the FedExCup standings with just one top-50 result in his last six starts, but Novak will be in attendance again this week at Royal Birkdale for his second career Open Championship outing.

Third MC in four tournaments Novak missed the cut by four strokes at the John Deere Classic.

Impact Novak found himself in a hole early after a double bogey on the first hole of the first round and went over-par in each of his two rounds at TPC Deere Run. He struggled with both his irons and his putter, as he lost 3.04 strokes in his approach and 3.07 strokes on the green. Novak has missed the cut in seven of 20 tournaments this season and in three of his last four outings, including the U.S. Open two weeks ago. He'll look to get back on track next week at the Scottish Genesis Open, which will serve as his tune-up for The Open at Royal Birkdale. Novak has made the cut in two of three prior appearances at the Scottish Open, including T13 last year.

T30 at Travelers Championship Novak fired a seven-under 63 on Sunday at the Travelers Championship to finish 11-under and tied for 30th.

Impact Novak hit 16 greens in regulation and he made just over 102 feet of putts en route to a bogey-free 63 on Sunday, gaining a collective 3.34 strokes with his ball striking in the process. He ultimately finished the Signature Event ranked ninth among the 72-man field in overall proximity as well. After improving four spots to No. 76 in the FedExCup standings, Novak will tee it up again this week at the John Deere Classic where he tied for seventh in 2024 when he gained 7.12 strokes putting on TPC Deere Run's greens.

Misses cut after Friday 79 Novak missed the cut at the Memorial Tournament by one stroke after posting a 71-79 scorecard.

Impact Novak was inconsistent in the first round but still finished under-par with an eagle, five birdies, four bogeys and a double bogey. It wasn't the same Friday, when he struggled out of the game with a six-over front nine before losing another stroke on the back. Novak was good off the tee, ranking in the top-15 in strokes gained in that category in both rounds. However, it was hist short game that let him down, as he lost 3.69 strokes around the green. It was the fifth time in 17 tournaments that Novak failed to make it to the weekend this season, with his last MC taking place at The Masters. He'll next tee off in two weeks at the U.S. Open Championship, where he finished T42 in 2025.

Impact Novak posted six-under 65 scores both Thursday and Saturday, and he entered the final round in a share of sixth with a 12-under cumulative score.

Novak finished third in SG: Approach, T12 in birdies made and 25th in SG: Off-the-Tee, though he ranked in the bottom half of the field in SG: Putting, SG: Around-the-Green, GIR and scrambling. He has two top-20s in his last three events and three such finishes through 11 tournaments in 2026, though he's also finished outside the top-40 seven times (including four missed cuts).
