30. BO VAN PELT

QUICK LOOK: While he won his first PGA TOUR event last year, 2010 has been Van Pelt's most consistent year. He's missed just four cuts all year -- but one was particularly ill-timed as it came in the first Playoffs event. He entered the BMW Championship in relatively solid position, even so, at No. 23 but a 77 on Sunday led to some anxious moments in front of the computer as he claimed the final spot at East Lake. -- Helen Ross
