With a field of only 30 for the final of the FedEx Cup playoffs, it may be the one golf event that you can actually pick the winner. Usually for a PGA event the field is considerably larger, and when you don't have one or two guys dominating the tour, trying to pick a winner is a considerably easier task.

Did I say easy? Check that. Considerably less difficult, is that better?

There are actually only a few players that are on top of their games heading into the Tour Championship in Atlanta. Many in the field of 30 ended up backing into the event instead of claiming a spot.

Several players played their way out of the Tour Championship with poor performances at Cog Hill, including J.B. Holmes and Rory McIlroy.

Some other notable players who didn't make the final of the Fed Ex Cup Playoffs include Ryder Cup picks Tiger Woods, Rickie Fowler, and Stewart Cink, as well as names like Ian Poulter, Anthony Kim and David Toms.

Four players played their way into the championship with strong showings at Cog Hill. They are Kevin Na, K.J. Choi, Ryan Moore, and Camilo Villegas.

Below I've broken the field down to the top one-third that has the been chance to win the $1.3 million prize, and maybe the $10 million prize that goes for the FedEx Cup standings winner. $11.3 million would be a nice weekend's work. I wonder, is that time and half?



 

10. Ernie Els: For much of the year the veteran Els was having the best year on tour. Although he cooled a bit down the stretch Ernie could still end up walking away with the Player of the Year. I don't think it would have to be a win in Atlanta, but it probably needs to be top three.

 

9. Phil Mickelson: Always a threat to win a tournament, even if he missed the cut the week before (which he didn't). His game can be on or off at the blink of an eye. But when it's on, he can win any tournament...
