Are you excited about the FedEx Cup??
This week is the Tour Championship at East Lake in Atlanta to determine the winner of the 2009 FedEx Cup. I hope you are more excited about that than I am. I've been thinking about what is wrong with the PGA Tour Playoffs and I am not sure what the answer is. I get more excited to watch Bay Hill, Doral, or even the Buick at Torrey Pines than this thing. I can understand that the PGA Tour wants to create excitement at the end of the season, but there must be a better way. Everyone I know seems to either be into football by now, or still watching the way the MLB season ends up. But there has to be an answer for the FedEx Cup. Maybe it should be more about the four Majors with points awarded for strength of finish in those four events. Then perhaps they could add in the Players Championship. There are five huge tournaments to award points in, then culminate it with the Tour Championship, maybe utilizing a changing and more intriguing venue than East Lake, a golf course which which most people are unfamiliar. Whatever the answer, the PGA Tour needs to tweak this format again.
