  导出博客文章The stakes are high at the Wyndham Championship, which begins Thursday at the Sedgefield Country Club in Greensboro, N. Cheap Air Max 90 Sale .C., and only part of it has to do with the $1 million winners share of the $5.6 million purse.Just as important are the 500 FedExCup points on the line, and viewing promises to be dramatic as players vie for coveted positioning in the final event before the first leg of the playoffs at The Barclays next week. The top 125 players in the FexExCup Standings will earn spots into The Barclays, which is why all but three players ranked 100-150 are in the field this week.Sitting on the magic number is South Korean Whee Kim at No. 125, but even that spot might not be good enough at the end of the week. Rookie Jon Rahm is in the field playing on conditional status and should the impressive former amateur star win this week, he would automatically convert to official FedExCup status and qualify for The Barclays.The Top 120 players in the FedExCup standings are likely to earn a spot in the first leg of the playoffs with a top-125 finish this week, with all players below them needing strong showings to improve their positions. For example, Camilo Villegas, who skipped the Olympic Games to try to improve his FedExCup standing, enters the week at No. 150 and may need a top-five finish to earn enough points to play next week. The good news? Villegas won the event in 2014 with a final-round 63 and has made the cut in all five appearances.It all equates to high drama over the weekend as every drive, chip and putt could dramatically affect those hovering around the bubble -- and determine whether their season ends this week.Advice for those who want to secure their playoff spots? Go low.Davis Love III, the U.S. Ryder Cup captain who is not in the field this week, won the Wyndham for the third time last year at 19-under, with all finishers in the top nine posting four rounds in the 60. Sedgefield has played as the easiest par 70 on the PGA Tour each of the past two seasons.Ryan Moore, who is coming off a victory at the John Deere Classic last week, posted four rounds in the 60s to finish in a tie for 10th in last years Wyndham -- along with Tiger Woods, who was making a last-ditch attempt to make the playoffs.I like this golf course a lot, said Moore, who won the event in 2009 in a three-way playoff against Jason Bohn and Kevin Stadler. I think its a great course, a lot of character. Youve got to hit a lot of different shots off the tees, into the greens, a lot of different clubs. I enjoy golf courses like that. Its not just get up, hit a driver as far as you can, try and hit a mid-iron and long iron into every single hole. Theres lots of different types of holes out here and thats kind of fun, interesting golf.Moore moved up to No. 23 in the FedExCup standings with last weeks victory. Also comfortably in the field for the Barclays is Tour rookie Harold Varner III, who is 79th. And as a North Carolina native, Varner III is another big fan of Sedgefield. This is his first entry into the Wyndham, although Varner III has played the course many times, and his parents and some teammates from East Carolina will travel to watch the tournament this week.Just real excited, he said. I love playing at home. Just ready to get going. Took the last two weeks off, just been itching to get back.It should be a good time.There are several former winners at Sedgefield, including Brandt Snedeker, who enters No. 6 in the FedExCup standings, making him the highest-ranked player in the standings in the field this week. Other former winners include Carl Pettersson, Arjun Atwal and Webb Simpson, who earned his first Tour victory at Sedgefield in 2011. He and wife, Dowd, named their third child Wyndham in 2014. Simpson has broken par in 19 of his past 24 rounds at the event, posting a win along with three more top-10s.I love coming here, he said. I said to some people last night, living in Charlotte, Quail Hollow is kind of a home tournament as well, but this is a lot closer to home to Raleigh for me. It feels like my home event.I love this golf course. We dont play enough courses on Tour, I dont think, that are as good as this in terms of playability. I feel like, no matter how far you hit it off the tee or what your skills are, everybody is really equal starting the week.Other top names in the field this week include Patrick Reed (No. 8 in FedExCup points), Justin Thomas (No. 9), Kevin Na (No. 10) and Kevin Kisner (No. 11).But the real focus is on those on the bubble -- with former Tour winners Scott Stallings and Kyle Stanley currently sitting at No. 126 and 127. Top 125 not only means a spot in the playoffs, but a Tour card for the 2016-17 season. Those from 126-150 will have conditional status with limited starts -- or choice where those opportunities come. Below that? Its back to the Web.com Tour.Every player from No. 114-135 is in the field. And there is certainly hope. Love III vaulted from No. 186 to 76th with last years victory. In all, five players secured their playoff berth at the Wyndham last year. Among them?One Camilo Villegas.Its a special place for me, Villegas told PGATour.com of Sedgefield. A lot of great people there, and great memories obviously of 2014. It hasnt been the best year. I need to step it up. Buy Air Max 90 Canada . Numbers Game looks into the Canadiens securing the services of Thomas Vanek in a trade with the New York Islanders. The Canadiens Get: LW Thomas Vanek and a conditional fifth-round pick. Air Max 90 Canada Online . - After leading the Saints to a fourth playoff appearance in five seasons, Drew Brees expressed confidence in the direction of his team and, perhaps more importantly, showed a willingness to listen to contract proposals if the team needs his help getting under the NFLs salary cap. http://www.airmax90canada.ca/ .Y. -- Injured Buffalo Sabres forward Marcus Foligno did not practice with the team Monday and head coach Ron Rolston said its unlikely hell play in Wednesdays season opener in Detroit. MINNEAPOLIS -- Odell Beckham Jr. took exception to getting tagged by Xavier Rhodes just after he ran out of bounds, so he got up and exchanged a couple of words with the Minnesota Vikings cornerback.It was a benign confrontation by Beckhams standards, but still drew an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty from the officiating crew.And with that, the message was clear: the extremely talented and extremely volatile New York Giants receiver is a marked man now, his reputation cemented as a player who needs to be closely watched for all the wrong reasons.Its always, its just my fault. Thats all I look at it as, its my fault. Whatever you want to call it, Beckham said after having just three catches for a career-low 23 yards in New Yorks 24-10 loss on Monday night. I just have to understand if I sneeze the wrong way, itll be a flag, itll be a fine. If I tie my shoe the wrong way, it might be a fine or a flag. It is what it is. You have to understand that.Playing a position that has long been known for outsized egos, Beckham is following in the footsteps of receivers like Terrell Owens, Chad Johnson and Randy Moss, who made a thunderous return to Minnesota as an ESPN analyst on Monday night.His talent is undeniable and his production is top notch -- Beckham already has more receptions, yards receiving and touchdowns than any Giants player has put up in his first three seasons, and Beckhams third year is only four games old. But the price the Giants pay for the elite playmaker comes in the form of tantrums, outbursts and penalty flags.Last year he was suspended for a game after drawing three personal foul penalties in a vicious matchup with then-Carolina cornerback Josh Norman. It also prompted Commissioner Roger Goodell to back a new rule that allows referees to eject a player after drawing multiple personal fouls.He has already lost $130,000 in salary because of fines and suspensions in his young career. Beckham was so unruly on the sideline in a loss to Norman and the Washington Redskins last week that coach Ben McAdoo had to speak with him several times to try to calm him down.Eli Manning backed Beckham earlier this week. But what should be worrisome to Beckham and the Giants is that officials are watching him more closely than ever now that his reputation as a hot head has been established.Manning said after the game his receiver has too adjust. Air Max 90 Sale Canada. .Hes got to be aware, Manning said. People are looking for him and hes got to be smart. He cant afford to do anything that theyre going to call. Hes brought that on himself, so hes got to be aware of that.And there are signs the negative attention is starting to wear on other teammates.Im not answering any Odell, those types of questions, receiver Victor Cruz said. Ask me about him as a player or me as a player or our team. Im not answering any Odell-infraction questions.Beckham wasnt targeted until a 9-yard reception on a slant more than seven minutes into the second quarter. Later in the drive, he caught a short pass and was bumped by Rhodes just after he hit the sideline.His confrontation with Rhodes was a pillow fight compared to the haymakers he exchanged with Norman last year, but he still drew a damaging 15-yard penalty that short-circuited a Giants drive. He clapped sarcastically after referee Brad Allen announced the infraction.Ive just got to know its all against me, Beckham said. Its going to be that way. I have to assume that Im always in the wrong no matter what. Thats something, its a tough pill to swallow, but you have to understand it, you have to be able to cope with it and just keep it moving.When he reached the sideline, Beckham was quietly pulled aside by receivers coach Adam Henry for a chat and linebacker Mark Herzlich also approached him to try to calm him down.Rhodes appeared to come unglued as well, needing to be restrained on the sideline by several coaches and later pushed back off the field by linebacker Chad Greenway after jawing with Beckham.Got to keep your composure, Rhodes said. He tries to get to you by getting on you, fighting with you and trying to get you out of your game.The outbursts from both players were kept to a minimum the rest of the game and so was Beckhams impact on offense.The refs are looking to call anything, and theyre not looking to call anything the other way, Beckham said. You have to know that, you have to know that, you have to be OK with it. Unfortunately, you have to be OK with it, but thats just the position Im in.---Online:AP NFL website: http://www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL coverage on Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL cheap falcons jerseys cheap ravens jerseys cheap bills jerseys cheap bears jerseys cheap bengals jerseys cheap cowboys jerseys cheap lions jerseys cheap texans jerseys cheap colts jerseys cheap jaguars jerseys cheap chiefs jerseys cheap rams jerseys cheap dolphins jerseys cheap vikings jerseys cheap saints jerseys cheap giants jerseys cheap jets jerseys cheap eagles jerseys cheap steelers jerseys cheap 49ers jerseys ' ' '
