These PGA Tour players are on the FedEx Cup Playoffs bubble with one regular-season event left
Jhonattan Vegas and Max Greyserman took care of business in Minnesota.
Vegas captured his fourth Tour victory at the 3M Open and rookie Greyserman had his best finish as a professional as both jumped into the FedEx Cup top 70. That means they're projected in the field for the playoffs, which begin in two weeks in Memphis. Up first, however, is one final event for players to earn their way into the postseason.
The race for the playoffs is on, as players jockey for spots in the top 70 in the FedEx Cup standings to secure a spot in the FedEx St. Jude Championship next month in Memphis. This is the second year only 70 players reach the first playoff event, unlike previous years when 125 made the playoffs.
The top 50 players after the FedEx St. Jude Championship on August 15-18 will qualify for the BMW Championship at Castle Pines on August 22-25 in Colorado, then the top 30 will head to Atlanta and East Lake for the Tour Championship on August 29-Sept. 1.
This week the PGA Tour is on a break for the Olympics, but next week the Wyndham Championship is the final event of the regular season and last chance for players to make it into the playoffs.
Here's a closer look at some interesting names in the FedEx Cup points standings, including some who have work to do to stay in the top 70 and others who need to make a push to reach Memphis.
Davis Riley, 71st
Riley finished T-46 at the 3M Open but still fell outside of the top 70 because of Greyserman and Vegas rising. If the playoffs began today, he would be the first man out.
Victor Perez, 70th
Three points in front of Riley is Victor Perez, who didn't play at the 3M Open. He has had three top-12 finishes in his last six starts but also a pair of MCs, including the Open Championship.
Kurt Kitayama, 73rd
It was a big week for Kitayama, who finished T-6 at the 3M and moved to 73rd in the standings. After a week off, he'll need a similar performance in North Carolina to make the postseason.
Nicolai Hojgaard, 79th
Hojgaard finished solo second in his first start this year at the Farmers and has not recorded a top 10 since. Sitting in 79th, he'll need another similar finish to get into the playoffs.
Lucas Glover, 75th
Glover is the defending champion at the Wyndham and the FedEx St. Jude Championship, so it's possible to see him move from 75th and get into the postseason with another stellar performance.
Harry Hall, 82nd
Hall won for the first time on Tour a couple weeks ago at the ISCO Championship, but he needs another big performance at the Wyndham to get from 82nd into the field.
K.H. Lee, 97th
The two-time Tour winner is 97th on the points list and will likely need a top-two finish to make it.
Rickie Fowler, 102nd
The six-time Tour winner didn't play the 3M and will need a likely need to win at the Wyndham to make the postseason.
Keith Mitchell, 78th
A T-46 in Minnesota didn't do much for Mitchell in his case to make the playoffs. He's in 78th with one event left.
Last five in, first five out (ahead of Wyndham)
