7. Louis Oosthuizen

Race To Dubai Points: 1,760,893

Upcoming Schedule: Nedbank Golf Challenge, DP World Tour Championship

How He Got Here: Once a regular fixture of European Tour events, South Africa’s Louis Oosthuizen hasn’t made the trip for European events quite as often in recent years, but still plays well enough in majors and WGC events to be a factor at the end of the season.

In this case, a runner-up finish at the WGC World Matchplay was really the trigger that sent Oosthuizen into the top-10 of the standings, and although it hasn’t been a vintage year, he’s played well enough to maintain that position in the time since.

Recent Form: Oosthuizen’s form has been solid as he played his way through the FedEx Cup playoffs with a top-10 and three top-20s overall. He certainly has the tools to show up and steal the show over the next few weeks too.
