Not much different in most sports. When you get to the playoffs you play well or your out. An 8 and 8 team could beat a 16 an 0 team in the NFL playoffs. If the 150th Player in the FedEx’s 1st of 3 tournaments won he would vault into the top 30 easily, so 3 tournament good play out of any of the top 150 could make them a winner. Most other sport playoffs you loose one and done. For me so far I like the new FedEx format.
