MORE FEDEXCUP: Standings | Movers: Who's up, down? | Five rookies in the top 30

The PGA TOUR Playoffs for the FedExCup are fast approaching. There are just five weeks and six events remaining for players to accumulate enough points for the 125-man field at The Barclays.

It was a calm week on the Playoffs cut line at the British Open and Viking Classic as just one player, George McNeill, moved inside the top 125. McNeill jumped from 132nd to 92nd with his tie for second at the Viking Classic. Losing his spot was Zack Miller, who made the Viking Classic cut but tied for 71st, falling from 124th to 127th in the latest FedExCup standings.

With 20 of the 31 players within 15 spots of the 125th ranking teeing it up this week at the RBC Canadian Open, a little more movement can be expected around the cut line. 2010 PLAYERS champion Tim Clark, who has been hampered by injury and made just four starts this season, is now squarely on the bubble at No. 125 in the standings.

In the two years since the changes to the FedExCup points system took place, 354 and 380 points have been required to qualify for the 125-man field at The Barclays. It's looking like the upward trend will continue again this year and the players listed below will probably have a major role in determining just how much the number increases.
