There are just two official events left before the end of the 2024 PGA Tour schedule. Historically, this time of year is a sleepy time for sports; However, with the fall portion of the calendar revamped to essentially become a campaign in its own right, these final tournaments take on more importance as players fight to keep their tour cards.

As the tour concludes with this week’s Butterfield Bermuda Championship, followed by the RSM Classic season finale, we take a look at the boys hovering around the bubble. It should be noted that everyone outside the top 125 in FedEx Cup points list— the deadline for maintaining their full status is set at 2025 — risk losing their status; Gary Woodland may seem in a precarious situation at No. 137, but he still has a year of eligibility remaining thanks to his victory at the 2019 US Open, while Michael Thorbjornsen (No. 136) is fully exempt for 2025 for having finished first in the ranking. the PGA Tour U ranking. But Woodland and Thorbjornsen are the lucky ones. Here are six notable names from the FedEx Cup bubble looking for a spot to play in 2025:

Berger returned from an 18-month injury layoff last January. He tends to have an issue with his lower disc, as well as deep bone tenderness, issues that have made playing an excruciating effort and kept him sidelined since the 2022 US Open. In an interview with The Associated Press last year, Berger said he had to take ice baths before he could play and that something as simple as sitting in a car caused him pain. Berger is a four-time winner on the PGA Tour and competed in the 2017 Presidents Cup and 2021 Ryder Cup for Team USA. Before his abbreviated 2022 season, he was coming off back-to-back $4 million campaigns and was ranked in the top 25 in the world. It was a difficult reassimilation to life on the circuit, as Berger missed the cut in 11 of his first 21 starts this year with just one top 20. But Berger showed signs of life in the fall, finishing seventh in the Sanderson Farms Championship and T-20 last week at the World Tech Championship. At 124th in the FedEx Cup points standings heading into Bermuda, he needs two decent performances to end the slide, even if he controls his destiny.

The trick-shot savant didn’t end up inside the FedEx Cup Top 125 since 2017, when he earned his only tour victory at Hilton Head, battling a litany of injury issues over the past few years. His outlook didn’t look bright entering the fall series, beginning the late-season push outside the top 150. But Bryan has been strong this fall, entering Bermuda with three top-25 finishes in his four latest departures (highlighted by a T-6 a week ago in Cabo). And at No. 128, he has a viable chance at full-time status for 2025. Bryan gets the chance to play with his brother George at Butterfield, where he was drafted last year.

“I want to keep my job here,” Dahmen said Sunday in Cabo. “My story is not over.” It’s been a trying year for the fan favorite, as short match woes put Dahmen in the hot seat. For his part, he hasn’t gone quietly into the night, making three of his last four cuts, with last week’s T-14 serving as his third top-15 finish in 2024. He’s on the right side of the line for the He is currently at No. 121, but his place is far from assured. However, Dahmen seems ready to take on the challenge. “It would mean everyone,” he said of keeping his card. “I think it would mean more this year, just how difficult it has been. Golf has been relatively easy for me for the past five years. I’ve never really been in this position before… It’s really hard to keep working when things aren’t going as planned.

The 46-year-old has built a remarkable career, racking up 460 starts and earning more than $27 million on the course. But the two-time Tour winner has a lot of work to do over the next two weeks at 139th. Fortunately for Streelman, he played some of his best golf of the season, nearly winning the Black Desert Championship (T-3) and finishing T-24 last week.

One of the favorite players to follow on Golf Twitter, Tosti had an up and down campaign during his rookie season. He has missed the cut in 14 of 26 starts and ranks 162nd in strokes gained. Conversely, a T-2 at the Houston Open kept him alive, with a top-10 finish in October at the Shriners Children’s Open helping his case. At No. 129, Tosti can punch his ticket with two decent consecutive outings.

Currently number 125, Springer earned his card by finishing in the top five at the revamped Q School last year. He bounced back from six straight missed cuts with back-to-back top 10s this summer at the Rocket Mortgage Classic and the John Deere Classic (where he shot a first-round 59), and a T-8 at the Sanderson put him in good position . However, Springer missed his next two cuts and finished T-45 in Cabo to be back on the bubble. A good week in Bermuda can make all the anxiety disappear.
