The field will be cut Saturday to 70 players and ties after 72 holes and the survivors will compete for the 20 fully exempted spots in Sunday's final round. The 20 is a hard number and if there is a tie for the final spot there will be a playoff. Those finishing 21 through 40 will have non-exempt status for the 2009 season.
As always, Q school is a drill in organized chaos. Veteran caddies looking for a late-season extra check show up to try to steer young talent -- or returning veterans -- to a card. On this day, players arrived looking for officials to find out the length of the delay. The final word: One hour on the champions course and 1:15 on the Legends, pushing Wie's first tee shot back to 10:47 a.m.
