Unlike the first two seasons of the PGA TOUR Playoffs for the FedExCup, no player will be able to clinch the championship prior to THE TOUR Championship presented by Coca-Cola. Thanks to a restructured points system, the top five players in the standings going into East Lake will be able to determine their own fate, with the other 25 players having at least a mathematical chance of winning.
So who will emerge at the FedExCup champion once the final putt drops at East Lake? PGATOUR.COM's staffers and correspondents (listed in alphabetical order) offer their top-five picks.
