Here’s the handout the Tour just passed out of the likely scenarios for the next two hours (which is the time they expec to finish before bad weather returns — if they DQ Kevin Na). I apologize if you can’t read the picture I took of it with my camera, but it doesn’t make that much sense, anyway. All I know is that to win the FedEx Cup, most the leaders have to win the tournament.
But I did find one scenario interesting. Nick Watney is five-under through 13, seven-under for the tournament. At one point, he was 14-under in the last 20 holes and 12-under for the last 18 (score of 58!). He’s one back of the leader, Jim Furyk, at the moment. So, if Watney can stay hot and wins the Tour Championship and Matt Kuchar finishes solo-25th, then it would result in a tie for the FedEx Cup. Kuchar is in the clubhouse in 26th place currently.
A sudden-death playoff would then take place immediately following the conclusion of the final round. Now that would be cool if they faced off for the $10 million.
Otherwise, bo-ring. I’m about to fall asleep, so I’m going to watch in the rain, which should be nice and wet since I didn’t pack a jacket.

how’s this for lame? Twitter is one of my main ways to follow golf now, and this seems so odd, esp. since Pavin tweets. I bet the Euros will be having fun and tweeting…

I have an unfortuante bit of news…I will not be able to tweet across the pond in Wales…capt’s orders! Sorry. I appreciate the support!
I read this article where it was suggested that instead of having FedEx Cup points for the playoffs, they use the player’s score in relation to par across the four events. That way, players would know exactly where they stand in the FedEx Cup and what they need to do to win at any point in time. It would certainly make it easier for the fans to keep track of things.
