T-13 for our man hardy definitely helps, he made up the ground he lost last week plus more spots to 132. He has to find a way to leap frog three more people in the next three tourneys to retain his card.

On the plus side this is the best form his game has been in all year. On the minus side there is a bit of a gap between 125 and him and the number will likely move also. He needs a couple top 20s and no missed cuts or a top 10 and no missed cuts or just a top 5. These three tournaments typically have deeper field than the Barbarsol and Baracuda but not barren. The LIV could help our boy just slightly by weakening the fields. I believe Paul Casey is on the LIV so he is not going to improve his ranking ahead of Nick.

work to be done, gonna be a pressure cooker.

DRS,
how many points did Nick win this past week? He has 283 points now and would need 318 to be Top 125.
35 points seems like quite a few for Nick. Your explanation of what he needs to do to break into T-125 is helpful, but I was just curious about what his pattern of weekly points is.

ESPN shows Nick earned 31 points this week. I don't know where you see this in advance, but I'm sure it's published somewhere.

Bad start by Nick today...2 over after a few holes. Even worse day for Michael Feagles on Korn Ferry Tour....shot an 80. 4 double bogeys and a quad bogey!

looks like he will make the cut but he really needs more than this. Big weekend. Don't want to be losing ground right now.

It looks like that golf course is set up to give the pros a headache this week.
Good for Hardy to make the cut! First things first. Now go get'm on the weekend!
I don't know about that, we got two on pace for -20 and with the others behind I would be shocked if it wasn't a minimum of -15 at the end. Those are pretty low scores,

The 3M Open in Minnesota is back underway after a long weather delay. The greens should be soft, so hopefully Nick can make some birdies down the stretch. He is currently T59 and needs to move up.

Bogeys last 2 holes to finish +1 for tourney. Made the cut but will probably lose about 5 spots in the FedEx rankings to about #137. He found the water hazards too many times this week.
