  1. ^ The number in parentheses after each winner's name is the number of Ben Hogan Tour events they had won up to and including that tournament. This information is only shown for Ben Hogan Tour members. It is rare for someone to accumulate many wins on the Ben Hogan Tour as success at this level usually leads to promotion to the PGA Tour.
