FedEx Cup Win Would Salvage Sergio Garcia’s 2014, After Another Majorless Year

Money heals all wounds. That’s the quote, right? Something like that. Money makes the heart grow fonder? Swish.

Spain’s Sergio Garcia, our resident most-notable-player-to-never-win-a-major, is running with the bulls all the way to the top of the BMW Championship leaderboard with his six-under 64 that put him at eight under overall. Maybe a win here, and winning the FedEx Cup Playoffs at the Tour Championship, could take the sting off another major-less year.

Garcia saw Bubba Watson and two of his Ryder Cup teammates immortalize themselves with not just a major but with more majors. Watson and Kaymer won their second, and McIlroy won his fourth.

They all won something he wants, and now it’s time for him to win something they covet.

Garcia, for all the criticism he suffers, has had one of his best years. In four World Golf Championships, he finished fourth, T9, T16 and second. That last one, the Bridgestone Invitational, McIlroy took a sledgehammer to Garcia in the opening holes and smashed any hope he had of winning.

The majors were progressively better, to a point, for Garcia. He missed the cut at the Masters, finished T35 at the U.S. Open and finished second at The Open Championship where he had his first of two dance-offs with McIlroy. Garcia followed that effort with a T35 at the PGA Championship and T57 at The Barclays—the first leg of the FedEx Cup Playoffs.

Clearly, Garcia needed some time off.
