Fed Ex Cup

The show Inside the PGA Tour is on right now on the Golf Channel. It featured some golfers saying that the Fed Ex Cup would make it possible for the top players to play each other more often. Well, that's working well so far (heavy with sarcasm). Tiger and Phil are both skipping the Mercedes Benz Championship this week. I don't think the Fed Ex Cup will make any difference to the Tour or the players. We'll probably see the same 30 guys at the end of this year that we saw at the end of last year. If they really wanted to make it exciting and create a shake-up within the golf world, then they should award extra points to the winner of a tournament if he is someone outside the top 50. Bring some of the breakout golfers into the mix. If they don't and they continue to just suck up to players like Tiger and Phil, then what's going to happen when those guys decide they don't want to play any longer? It will be a very dark time in American Golf.
