And then there were 30.

Although the golf season never really stops—seriously, the 2014 season starts in October—the 2013 PGA Tour season will officially conclude on Sunday. The 30 best and brightest players of this PGA campaign have descended upon East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta for this week's Tour Championship, where we'll see a $10 million crown placed atop the FedEx Cup champion's head.

Started in 2007 to give the PGA its own "playoff" system, the FedEx Cup has served its purpose in creating intrigue in the once-mundane end to the season.

Coming into Thursday's opening tee, each of the golfers remaining has a mathematical shot at coming away with the $10 million prize. Some of those ways are so convoluted you'd think M. Night Shyamalan wrote the formula, but every last golfer in the field has hope.

Well, except for you, Dustin Johnson. There's no way Tiger Woods is finishing 29th or worse.

For everyone else? The shot at glory still remains.

Last season saw Brandt Snedeker parlay his Tour Championship victory into a pilfering of the FedEx Cup points lead from Rory McIlroy. Snedeker joined Bill Haas and Jim Furyk, marking three years running that a golfer has pulled off a win in the final week to shock the world.

Will someone pull off a similar feat in Atlanta this week? It's very possible.

Until then, let's check in with the complete updated standing and break down the favorites for this week's Tour Championship.
