Do you ever get the feeling that Seamy just can't quite cut the mustard at middle level never even mind at the top.

Earning half a million dollars in three consecutive weekends in early may. Talent-less and wasting time on silly pipe dreams :rolleyes:

+1 He may be down the rankings but there's still pots of money to be made.

Even for guys like him who can't bust into the majors or the WGCs, the Barbasol this week (overlaps the Open in Portrush) has a prize pot of $3,500,000 and the Barracuda the following week (overlaps the WGC-St. Jude) has the same pot. That's seven million dollars which will be shared by a bunch of lads who are all outside the world's top 50.

Seamus finished with a 4 under 68 to finish 10 under and tied 53rd at the Barbasol Championship earning $7,882.

+11 in round 1 of the Barracuda

Fortunately that is his stableford score and not stroke. He is in 6th spot with a number of players still to complete their round

Just to give some context of his score ....

Modified Stableford scoring system points

Albatross: 8 points
Eagle: 5 points
Birdie: 2 points
Par: 0 points
Bogey: -1 points
Double bogey or worse: -3 points

ConcertKing · 29-07-2019 10:06am

Seamus finished with 5 points in round 4 to finish 31 points under the stableford scoring system and tied 25th at the Barracuda Championship earning $26,717.

Looks like Seamus will have to finish 10th at worst this week, to have any chance of making the playoffs

I presume that if he stays in the top 150, he'll go straight into the final round of the playoffs for one of the 25 cards available for those outside the top 25 in the secondary tour?

Yeah and will still get quite a few starts next year anyway

His chances would be improved if more of the top players were resting this week after playing in Portrush and the WGC but there's a fair few of the current FexEx top 100 playing in the Wyndham.

I counted 53 players from the current FedEx top 100 on the tee times sheet. Which will make it difficult for Seamus to get a top 10 finish, he's currently ranked 144.

Seamus Power facing battle for PGA Tour card

I remember the last regular tour event last year, probably the Wyndham. Seamus missed the cut so could only sit and watch. By late Sunday, he was projected to come 126th in the FedEx table and the guy who was projected to come 125th was still playing. Things were looking bad for Seamus until Garcia shot a birdie, overtook Mr. FedEx 125 on the leaderboard which reduced his FedEx points to the point that he and Seamus swapped places and that's how it finished. I wonder did Seamus send Sergio a Christmas card?

LuckyGent88 · 01-08-2019 1:51pm

Well he has chipped in for birdie on his opening hole of the day. All aboard the positivity train.....

OEP · 01-08-2019 2:53pm

Didn't Sergio make a complete mess of the back 9 and fell out of the top 125, allowing Seamus to keep 125? Sergio obviously doesn't need to be in the top 125 for a card.

Yeah he made a good few bogeys on the back 9 which brought Seamus back into top 125

MrKingsley · 01-08-2019 3:43pm

-4 through 8.

It’s the hope that kills you

LuckyGent88 · 01-08-2019 3:58pm

I’m actually afraid to post in case something bad happens so I’m just to wait until the tournament is over now. Don’t want to jinx him!!

Remind me · 01-08-2019 5:05pm

Is he playing with Sabbatini?

Remind me · 01-08-2019 6:15pm

-6 great start

joebloggs32 · 01-08-2019 7:12pm

Usually when I look up the shot tracker for him he has a bad shot!

Great start today in a week where there is a lot of pressure on him. Even should he fall short a good performance would be important to boost his confidence ahead of the web.com playoffs

abff · 02-08-2019 2:44pm

A small improvement on his position at the end of round one would be sufficient to get Seamus into the top 125. His projected ranking at the end of round one was 127.

That has now slipped somewhat due to shots picked up by the early starters, but it would be great if he could back up yesterday's round without another three good scores.

Recently, he has tended to fall away after a good start, but maybe this is the week he will hold it all together. Fingers crossed!

MrKingsley · 02-08-2019 3:34pm

Looking at the last few years(for whatever it’s worth) he’ll need to get to -13/14 for a top ten.

2/3 under today go nicely

tobsey · 02-08-2019 8:36pm

Bounced back well after opening bogey but he’s missed three 7 footers for birdie in the last 4 holes. I hope it doesn’t cost him.

Rikand · 02-08-2019 10:34pm

Everyone shooting -4, -5, -6 for the day and Seamus on -1 after 15

Remind me · 02-08-2019 10:58pm

-2 and still giving himself a chance at the weekend. Such a packed leaderboard

Rikand · 03-08-2019 4:41pm

-1 after 1 to start his round

wildrover444 · 03-08-2019 6:54pm

He at 8 under now. Pity he double bogeyed the 12th. He had got to 10 under.

callaway92 · 03-08-2019 9:37pm

Poor back 9 - game over for him I think
