FEDEXCUP:<\/strong> Complete Standings<\/a> | Weekly Leaders<\/a> | More FedExCup notes<\/a><\/p>\n

With five events playing out in the month of March, there were opportunities aplenty to make a move in the FedExCup standings. Here\u2019s what you need to know about the changes in the last four weeks.<\/p>\n

In the month of March, four golfers made 70-plus spot improvements in their FedExCup standing. A solo 4th at The Honda Classic made Ricky Barnes the month\u2019s biggest mover. He entered the months with just 0.95 points and leaves with 175 as he vaulted from 222nd to 80th in the standings. Seriously.<\/p>\n

Michael Bradley\u2019s win in Puerto Rico helped him from 139th to 43rd while Marc Turnesa (218th to 124th) and Stephen Ames (161st to 91st) also made splashes in March.<\/p>\n

One last fun fact:<\/strong> Just 93 of the 125 players who qualified for the PGA TOUR Playoffs for the FedExCup would again qualify for the playoffs if the season were to end today. That means we\u2019re seeing 32 new faces in the top 125. The headliner? No. 1 Mark Wilson, who missed the Playoffs by just 37 points a year ago. -Chris Dunham<\/i><\/em><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p>\n
