Alright folks, just wanted to give a quick recap of how we got to this exciting final event of the FedEx Cup playoffs. What a story Keegan Bradley has been so far - to think he came into the playoffs ranked outside the top 50! But that incredible win at the BMW Championship means he'll be in the field this week at East Lake.
It all started a few weeks ago at TPC Southwind for the first playoff stop, the St. Jude Championship. That's where the top 70 guys in the points competed. Things were quickly narrowed down there, with the top 50 moving on to Castle Pines for the BMW. That's where Keegan made his charge, sealing the deal with that triumph last week.

And now after all that, only the top 30 points earners over those first two events get to tee it up here at East Lake for the big finale and a shot at the $25 million first prize. Can you believe the amount of dough on the line?!
Between Keegan playing his way in, all these top names vying for the giant payday, and of course the pressure of it all being the season's last hurrah, I fully expect we're in for an absolutely wild ride this week. Be sure to tune into the NBC and Golf Channel coverage to follow all the excitement. I'll be out at the course providing insights and interviews. Enjoy the golf, everyone!
