The FedEx Cup will be decided at the 2013 Tour Championship, as 30 golfers battle for the $10 million prize. With the standings far from decided and a champion yet to be crowned, the pressure is high in Atlanta, Ga.

With a strong enough performance here, Johnson could be the man to emerge with a $10 million check.

Johnson will need to find more consistency in order to close out and win this event, but the promise is there. He settled down on the back nine and went off for three birdies on a stretch of four holes, and after watching him win 10 career PGA Tour titles, it's become clear th...
