On Moving Day, the players in the second playoff tournament of the PGA Tour final spurt got into their starting positions for the final round. Keegan Bradley played his way to the top of the field with two strokes under par. Bradley is ranked 50th in the FedEx Cup, only just won the right to play in the tournament – but now left his competitors behind as the sole leader.

PGA Tour: the second playoff event from a German-speaking perspective
From a German-speaking perspective, we look at Sepp Straka and Stephan Jäger. The Austrian catapulted himself into the top 10 with a 69 on Moving Day and goes into the last 18 holes in joint ninth place. After a difficult start, a double bogey on hole 2 set Straka back, he set off a birdie fireworks display. A birdie on hole 5 was followed by a birdie series of four birdies and a sixth birdie on hole 12. With a bogey on hole 15, the PGA Tour winner finds himself in T9 after three rounds.
Stephan Jäger has to fight for a ticket to the last playoff tournament in the final round: He is currently tied for 37th place in the tournament. He is not yet in the top 30 in the FedEx Cup – a challenge for the German to achieve the best possible placement. He experienced a rollercoaster ride on Moving Day. An up and down of strokes gained and lost saw him record a 73 (+1) on Saturday, with which he gained two places.
