The top 70 in the FedEx Cup standings head to Medinah Country Club near Chicago this week for the BMW Championship, now the second leg in the FedEx Cup Playoffs. In years past, the BMW was the third stop, but with the elimination of the Dell Technologies Championship it now comes after the Northern Trust, though it still serves as the last chance for those outside the top 30 to get into the Tour Championship.
As of now, some intriguing names sit outside the top 30, all in need of a special week to advance to East Lake. The biggest name of all is of course Tiger Woods, whose WD in New Jersey dropped him to 38th on the points list, 97 points back of the man in 30th, Andrew Putnam. Woods is expected to play, but how well remains to be seen. He was completely off at Liberty National, which could be attributed to both his health and the fact he hadn't played since Royal Portrush. If there is one thing on his side this week, it's that he has plenty of history at Medinah, where he's won two PGA Championships.
Then there is Jordan Spieth, who had another woeful third round at the Northern Trust but this time bounced back on Sunday, shooting a four-under 67 to finish T-6, vaulting him from 69th to 44th in the FedEx Cup standings. If Spieth fails to make the top 30 at Medinah, it will be the second straight year he's missed the Tour Championship.
