The FedEx Cup Playoffs have arrived, and this week they kick off at Ridgewood Country Club in Paramus, N.J. Dustin Johnson enters as both the top-ranked seed in the playoffs and the defending champion in this event. You’d expect him to be the odds-on favorite wouldn’t you? You would. And you would be correct.
All golfers carry their points into these playoffs, but points are quadrupled in these events, so expect some big moves up and down the standings this week. The top 100 players after this weekend will survive and advance to next week’s Dell Technologies Championship. So in addition to keeping an eye on the leaders, watch those golfers ranked around No. 100 grind over every putt in hopes of extending their seasons.
