Hadwin slips back in Fed Ex Cup playoffs...US Ryder Cup Team updates

It's amazing how a few birdies or bogey's can change a pro's chances of advancing in these tightly packed Fed Ex Cup playoffs.

Adam Hadwin started his final round of the Dell Technologies with 3 birdies in 4 holes, shot up to -10, however bogey's at 16 and 17 and his -1 70 leave him T21 at -8 and more importantly back to 47th place going into this week's BMW Championship.

70 players have moved on and from this week to top 30 will be playing in the season ending Tour Championship.

So while Adam slipped back a little he still has a chance to get into that top 30 with a good week, probably a top10 or better will be required to move up 17 spots.

Meanwhile Bryson DeChambeau has peaked at just the right time with his second straight win, this time with 70 68 63 67 -16, good for a 2 shot win over Justin Rose.

Remember Vijay Singh was the only other golfer to achieve this feat and in fact he only had to show up at the Tour Championship to win the Fed Ex Cup

DeChambeau will be named along with Tiger and Phil to the stacked US Ryder Cup squad today, and can take next week off as he is assured of the #1 ranking at the Tour Championship.

Of note: US captain Jim Furyk will name 3 of 4 picks at 5pm EST, with the final spot being held back until the completion of play this week at the BMW Championship.
