It's big-money time on the PGA Tour as the top players in the world look to bring home $10 million for first place in the FedEx Cup.

On the other hand, taking an early lead hasn't always worked out well for players in the past, per ESPN Stats & Info:

Jason Day, who ranks second in the FedEx Cup standings with a tour-best three wins this year, showed how tough it is to win this event a year ago. After winning the PGA Championship, he followed up with a victory at The Barclays and later the BMW Championship.

Unfortunately, just a 10th-place finish at the Tour Championship left the door open for Jordan Spieth to win the top prize.

Henrik Stenson won the event in 2013 with victories at the Deutsche Bank Champion...
