The top 125 in points are in the FedExCup Playoffs. And the No. 126-200 FedExCup point-getters will go into the Web.com Finals, which is the only way to make it to the PGA Tour these days. Players ranked above 200, like David Duval and John Daly, are out of luck and have to go to the Web.com Tour Q- School.

"It's a hard cut," said Tom Alter, PGA Tour spokesman, regarding the No. 200 for the Web.com Tour Finals and PGA Tour qualifying for 2015.

Alter's statement was in response to the question: With Bernhard Langer and Kenny Perry, both Champions Tour players, at Nos. 197 and 199, does that allow Kevin Foley, No. 201, and David Duval, No. 202, to move up into those places and enter the Web.com Finals? No, Alter said, it doesn't.

Kevin Foley missed a four-footer on the final hole in Greensboro, according to Alter who was on hand to deliver the bad news when Foley finished.

David Duval is a former world No. 1, winner of the British Open and The Players. He gets no love either.

Here's the odd thing: It's not just Bernhard Langer and Kenny Perry who have collected enough FedExCup points to kick Tour players in Nos. 201 and higher out of the Web.com Finals. It's also a passel of other pros, including those who are already exempt because they won within the last two years or who have some other kind of exemption and are between 126 and 200.

For instance: Martin Laird, at No. 127, won the Valero Texas Open in 2013. The Valero victory gives him a two-year exemption no matter where he finishes in points now. He can't have his card taken away for 2015. But by being at No. 127, he takes a spot away from the guy at No. 201, 202 or 203.

Brian Gay, John Merrick, D.A. Points, Derek Ernst, Ken Duke and Woody Austin all finished at a higher number than 126, but they have another year of exemption left from wining in 2013. Davis Love III, who has a lifetime exemption based on the number of career wins,...
