NEWTOWN SQUARE, Pa.
(AP) — Easily overlooked in
golf this week is that other
"cup," the one more about
finances than flags.
Jordan Spieth sure hasn't
forgotten about the FedEx
Cup.
One year after he was in
the mix for the $10 million
bonus until the final hour
at East Lake in Atlanta, Spi-
eth is simply trying to make
sure he has a tee time at
the Tour Championship. He
is No. 27 in the FedEx Cup,
and only the top 30 move
on to the finale in two
weeks.
"Each year you pick a Osaka powers into U.S. Open
schedule, and I have es-
sentially assumed — based
on the previous years — semis by routing Tsurenko
that would be part of it,
and have a chance to win
the FedEx Cup," Spieth said Naomi Osaka, of Japan, waves to fans after defeating Lesia Tsurenko, of Ukraine, during the quarterfinals of the U.S. Open tennis
Wednesday at the BMW tournament, Wednesday, Sept. 5, 2018, in New York.
