K.J. Choi moved to No. 6 this week -- his highest FedExCup standing since early in the 2008 Regular Season with his victory at THE PLAYERS Championship. The win was his first since the 2008 Sony Open in Hawaii and gives Choi a total of 1,161 FedExCup points in 2011. Choi didn't reach that total until the BMW Championship last year and he never reached it in 2009.
Paul Goydos was one of the week's biggest stories. The 2008 PLAYERS runner-up almost put himself into position to join the Sunday playoff, but settled for a third-place finish and the biggest move of anyone in the FedExcup standings. Goydos jumped 53 spots from 112th to 59th. David Toms who, like Goydos in 2008, lost a playoff on 17 at THE PLAYERS, moved up 34 spots into 22nd position.
No one made a double-digit drop in the standings this week, but Ryuji Imada (128th), George McNeill (129th), Boo Weekley (129rd) and Kent Jones (130th) made multi-spot slides outside the coveted top 125 positions.
The following are the biggest movers -- up and down -- after THE PLAYERS Championship.
