And the Schwab Cup Too

I could be remiss if I neglected the Charles Schwab Cup Championship and the Schwab Cup itself. The end of the season starts nowadays!

The 2018 Schwab Cup race winner is 5-time champ Bernhard Langer, even though the 2018 championship winner is Vijay Singh. After a quick test, final 12 months the Champions Tour went returned to letting the points decide the Cup winner. That manner we've 4 possible winners in the year-lengthy race:

• Scott McCarron
• Jerry Kelly
• Bernhard Langer
• Colin Montgomerie

Technically, Retief Goosen still has a mathematical chance at the Cup, but he must win and:

• McCarron must finish T12 (three-way) or worse, and
• Kelly must finish T5 (two-way) or worse

His chances of getting both seem long to me, but the possibility is there.

You can see the situations for every of the viable winners on this page at pgatour.Com. McCarron and Kelly are thus far ahead that the chances dramatically prefer them (all both ought to do is win and the Cup is his), and they desire McCarron plenty more than Kelly (because McCarron could probably finish dead remaining and still win, depending on what the others do).

GC's live coverage begins today at 3pm ET, amid the coverage of all the other events going on. Bear in mind that if Langer wins, he also pulls within four Champions Tour wins of Hale Irwin, so although he is the only one of the possibles who has won the Cup before, he will be playing with more pressure than the others. Should be fun to watch!
