FedEx Cup: Ten bubble players likely to make the TOUR Championship
With moving day starting at Aronimink, the pressure is on the make the top 30 for the rights to play for the FedEx Cup championship in two weeks at East Lake.
The FedEx Cup’s top 20 players have already qualified for the TOUR Championship. Leaving only ten spots left, a strong finish this week is going to be necessary to secure a spot in the final event for those on the bubble.
The BMW championship is a no cut event, meaning that everyone who is playing this weekend will need to put together a strong four rounds. There’ll be no sneaking into the cut to get guaranteed points this week. A slow start? You will be able to make up for it by putting together a good Saturday and Sunday.
Watching the leaderboard all weekend will be more interesting than normal, as something as simple as climbing to 35th place would be all it takes for certain players. A bad first or second round could be nullified by a great third or fourth, something that wouldn’t normally be possible.
Low scores have already been put on the board Thursday and Friday. With scoring conditions setup for the players, there will continue to be big movers throughout the rest of the weekend. Kevin Na stands out and (spoiler alert) he will be on one of the slides in this article. Shooting 62 for -8, Na jumped up to find himself five shots off the lead.
Let’s go ahead and take a look at the players who are most likely to fill out the top 30 heading in to East Lake.
