Starting on Thursday, the top 125 players in the FedEx Cup standings who qualified for the playoffs, begin play at the Barclay's to be held at the Ridgewood Country Club in Paramus, N.J. Then the top 100 players qualify for the Deutsche Bank Championship, the top 75 qualify for the BMW Championship and the top 30 qualify for the playoff-final, The Tour Championship.
Rory McIlroy leads the way with 2582 points followed by Jimmy Walker, Bubba Watson, Matt Kuchar, Jim Furyk and so on.
Graham DeLaet is 28th with 1113, and David Hearn 82nd with 645.
The event returns to Ridgewood for the the first time since 2010 where Matt Kuchar beat Martin Laird in a playoff. In the last 6 years, RCC has invested almost $8 million into the restoration of its golf course. Among the improvements have been the construction of 26 new tees, a new irrigation system, a new Greens and Grounds complex, an expansion of the pond on hole #1 on the Center nine, and the rebuilding of all the bunkers back to their original A.W. Tillinghast design. The course includes three challenging and scenic nines known as Center, West, and East, referring to their location relative to the clubhouse.
