.FedExCup Featured Player: Chez Reavie

• The defending champ is in 170th place in the FedExCup standings and needs to make a strong move over the last five weeks to qualify for the PGA TOUR Playoffs.

• Reavie's position is similar to last year when he entered the RBC Canadian Open in 126th place before winning and jumping to 29th. Needs a solo fourth or better this week to have a chance at cracking the top 125.
