Wyndham Championship is the final tournament in the PGA Tour's "regular season," with the FedEx Cup playoffs beginning next week with the The Barclays. Only the Top 125 players in the FedEx Cup point standings get into The Barclays, so that will be one of the main stories this week at the Wyndham.

The defending champ at the Wyndham is Arjun Atwal, who won last year after Monday qualifying. He's at No. 120 in FedEx Cup points, so he isn't safe, but he'll probably get in.

But some big names won't make it into the playoffs this year. Tiger Woods, of course, is out - he's at 129 in the point standings and not playing the Wyndham.

Camilo Villegas is the bubble boy now, currently sitting at No. 125. Just behind, on the outside, is Ernie Els at 126. Padraig Harrington is 130th, Ben Curtis 131st. These guys have work to do. Justin Leonard is at No. 142, Paul Casey at 147 and Angel Cabrera at 150.

Here are the players ranked Nos. 120-140 on the FedEx Cup points list entering the Wyndham:

120. Arjun Atwal
121. Heath Slocum
122. Matt Jones
123. David Mathis
124. Cameron Beckman
125. Camilo Villegas
