Barclays Classic starts this week. Unlike the past three-time FedEx Cup Playoffs, this-time Federaton Cup is changeable. At first, Firyk's qualification was cancelled before playing game. Then, Woods was likely to disqualify the second bout, but now Woods took a lead at the first round. Mickelson had chance to be new World First if he continued his best condition, while now he is tied for 72th place. Maybe there are many unpredictable things to happen.

In the past five months, Ayers has been in the top filed of scoreboard of Federation Cup. Since he won the second champion at Arnold Palmer Invitational, his ranking never lowered. In this process, he knew clearly that he can join in Barclays Classic.

On the contrary, Scott Piercy is a successor. In the Wyndham Championship of last week, he was eager for a good place to enter into top 125 of scoreboard of Federation Cup. If he did it, he can qualify the first bout of Federation. At the last round, Scott Piercy hit 68 and got the last seat with two-point advantage. It is not weird that Wednesday, the first question he should face was whether he knew Heath Slocum very much.

A year ago, Heath Slocum's performance at Barclays Classic brought hope for players who were just eligible for finals. 12 months ago, Heath Slocum competed with some first-class challengers and caught a birdie at the last hole to change his fate.  And in a week after he just qualified for finals, he made sure his qualification for Tour Championship through a victory and meanwhile won the cards of four Majors of the following year. "I felt very excited to have access to Finals." Heath Slocum said, "I hope I can play three, four......all finals......to keep my good condition."

Ayers was the first time to tak a lead in the scoreboard. Then he was followed by Stricker, Furyk and Mickelson. The points of Finals is the five times of the Regular. In addition, top 100 players are eligible for the second bout and top 70 players can be qualified for the third bout of Chicago. From then on, the top 30 players will reset points and compete for prize of 10 million dollars. Moreover, the above-mentioned four players basically can be sure to join in East Lake Finals. "Next four weeks, there are different performance." Ayre said, "For me, the key point is to play well as well as other persons."

And it is also real to Woods. After experiencing the turmoil of private life, his performance was also unsteady. But fortunately, at first round, Woods found his feeling for golf.

In the past three years, Woods had been the player who was ranked for the first place before playing finals, besides 2008 when he only participated in 6 games because of his knee injury.
