George McNeill is one player making the most of his opportunities on TOUR this season. In just five starts, McNeill has made four cuts and turned two of them into top-10 finishes. His tie for sixth at last week's Zurich Classic of New Orleans moved him from 172nd to 115th in the latest FedExCup standings.

David Mathis, Andres Romero and Matt Jones each scored their first top 10 of the season and made 40-plus spot jumps in the standings. Also on the upswing is 2010 q-school medalist Billy Mayfair, who moved inside the top 100 with his T8 in New Orleans. Another move could be in store for the 44-year-old. He travels to Quail Hollow this week for the Wells Fargo Championship -- a tournament he led through 54 holes last year.

Taking the biggest tumble this week was Kris Blanks, who moved back 12 positions after missing the cut in New Orleans. Five others who missed the Zurich Classic cut surrendered 11 spots in the standings.

The following are the biggest movers -- up and down -- after the 2011 Zurich Classic of New Orleans.
