Graduates
The money list was known as the Race to Amendoeira; the top five players (not otherwise exempt) earned Challenge Tour cards for 2018.[2] Since the first-place finisher earned Challenge Tour status in a higher category by making the cut in the final stage of Q School, the sixth-place finisher received the fifth card.
