Musings by Jéan: [2025 Archive]
We arrive at the end of the 2025 fantasy golf season. There is a visible haze that hangs over the humid, southern city hosting this week's tournament that should not be mistaken for the exhaust from the local textile mills. What you are seeing is the sense of desperation enveloping the area. This is the final chance for players to lock in their spots for the FedEx Cup playoffs this season. The final chance for some to salvage their seasons. The final chance for someone to play well enough to get interviewed by the adorable Amanda Balionis (I mean, that should really be any red blooded male's goal regardless of whether they are a golfer or not, right?). If efforts fail and you go down in a blaze of glory, you will be left crying in your locally bottled Cheerwine post round. Welcome to the Wyndham Championship at Sedgefield Country Club in Greensboro, North Carolina!
My guy is on the proverbial bubble. I am not talking about the top 70 to get into the playoffs bubble. He's well inside of that. There is another bubble that carries tremendous weight which doesn't get talked about as much as it should; the top 50 bubble. That is the one that guarantees entry into all full-field PGA TOUR events, the PLAYERS, the Sentry Tournament of Champions, and most importantly, all the $ignature events which means the opportunity to win big piles of cash and prizes. Currently sitting at 54th in the points, that ought to incentivize this local North Carolina boy to play well this week at the tournament formerly known as the Greater Greensboro Open. A round of applause for the pride of Western Carolina University (go Catamounts!), a man who loves to hunt, fish, and hate on all the Duke sports programs, the "other" J.T., a.k.a., "The Postman," Mr. J.T. Poston!
