To make an impact in the FedExCup points race, it helps to be the guy holding the trophy on Sunday afternoon. But even if you aren't winning PGA TOUR events, producing solid performances each time you tee it up will help you rise in the standings.

So which players are making the most of their FedExCup points opportunities?

By taking a player's actual FedExCup points won and dividing it by the maximum number he could have won in the starts he's made on TOUR this year, we've calculated a player's FEC percentage.

Here are the top 200 players going into this week's two TOUR events -- the World Golf Championships-Bridgestone Invitational and the Legends Reno-Tahoe Open -- who are getting the most out of their potential FedExCup points this season .
