I presume he means on fedex playoff. He’s 126 now

Never thought of that

You’d presume he needs 2 or 3 under tomorrow at a minimum.

Shane has been a consistently poor weekend player for a long time. He’s been around long enough on tour for that inconsistency to be addressed but he’s not going to excel much more than he is now.

He’s a consistent top 30 player in the world rankings for now, occasionally dropping up and down every so often. He’ll make a good and comfortable living out of it on the American tour but he’ll never be a consistent top 10 or 15 world ranking or tour player at this stage.

Not a criticism. He doesn’t have to be the best to continue maintaining a very lucrative career out of it. He’ll probably even have an odd win along the way.

He’s only in the top 30 because of The Open win, for which he got massive ranking points. He was in and out of top 50 before that, and has barely been in the top 30 of a tournament since, so it won’t be long before he starts falling unless he sorts his form out.

Needs a par on last to have a chance. Bogey and he can go on holidays

fullstop

Projected 124 at the min.

Per shot tracker ‘shot 2 from other’ and had to hack out.

5 footer one last required

Wait now

Made it. Fair play. Had to know he was on the bubble.

Par made. Sit and wait.

Jim Herman is the danger man, Lowry needs Jim to be T-3 or worse.

C'mon Billy.

Does a win even move Herman inside? When he was tied for the lead he was projected 131 or something like that.

Herman is well in. He’s projected 85 according to the PGA app.

Looking good at the moment. 122 projected currently.

+1 confirmed. He is one of three (Jim Herman, Zach Johnson and Shane) who jumped the fence and made it into the playoffs.

Shane not down to be on the timesheet this week. What’s the point in that grind last week if not going to turn up this week.

Strange one

Looks like that page just isnt updated for the players that scraped into the top 125 last week. He will be playing alright.

Yeap the 3 players that jumped in aren't listed and the 3 players that fell out are in.

Lazy.

Shane is in the last pairing (with Tom Lewis) off the 1st tee at 18:50 Irish time on Thu.

Given that he's currently ranked 122 and only 70 go through (the play-offs have been compressed to three events because of the shortened season), he will need a very good finish to make the BMW next week. Depends on how others do but I'd say minimum top 20 required.

With 124 entries, they have 40 three balls and 2 two balls. I can’t see the logic of putting the two balls out last. It means they are going to be held up at every hole.

Depends who the 2 ball was, like if it was Deshambeau and JB Holmes they might finish a few holes behind.

abff

Good point! But it’s Tom Lewis and Shane in one of the two balls and I don’t think either of them is particularly slow. Makes for a very frustrating day for them.

Imagine been in a 2 ball and playing behind a 3 ball that consists of JB and Bryson :eek::eek::eek:
