Watson is looking for his third career win and third in less than a year, while Simpson is trying for his first. Will one of them get it, or will it be one of the 15 players within four shots of the lead? Discuss the final round here.<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p><h3>Top spot in FedExCup up for grabs<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p><em><em>By Brian Wacker, PGATOUR.COM Site Producer<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n<p>With FedExCup points leader Mark Wilson, who\u2019s won twice this season, not in the field this week, Bubba Watson, Luke Donald and Nick Watney all have a chance to take over the top spot.<\/p>\n<p>Here are the scenarios:<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 Donald, who started the week 63 points behind Wilson and is five strokes back of the lead, will take over the No. 1 spot if he wins. He\u2019s also projected to move to the top if he finishes 12th or better, Watson finishes second or worse and Watney<br \/>finishes third or worse.<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 Watney can move to No. 1 if he wins and Donald finishes second or worse. Watney would also move to the top if he finishes second, Donald finishes fourth or worse and Watson does not win.<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 Watson would top the standings if he wins and Donald finishes third or worse.<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p><h3>Simpson\u2019s scrambling paying off<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p><em><em>By Brian Wacker, PGATOUR.COM Site Producer<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n<p>You don\u2019t have to be a mathematician to figure out why Webb Simpson has a share of the lead heading into the final round: He\u2019s made just two bogeys all week, fewest in the field.<\/p>\n<p>How did Simpson get to that point? Making par or better on 10 of the 12 greens he\u2019s missed this week has certainly helped. Simpson is also sneaky long \u2014 he\u2019s 18th in the field in driving distance at 296.2 yards \u2014 and of course accurate \u2014 he\u2019s fourth in the field in greens in regulation at 77.8 percent.<\/p>\n<p>Simpson may have a share of the lead, but he\u2019s got plenty of company with 24 players within five shots of the lead here in the final round. That\u2019s more than a third of the remaining field.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ghanamma.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/bc34ca94he_heritage.jpg-150x150.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>More here:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/us.rd.yahoo.com\/sports\/rss\/golf\/SIG=1303etiij\/*http:\/\/sports.yahoo.com\/pga\/news?slug=pgatour_com-round_4_zurich_classic_of_new_orleans_2011\" title=\"Tour Report: Your open thread: Zurich Classic, Rd. 4 (PGATOUR.com)\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Tour Report: Your open thread: Zurich Classic, Rd. 4 (PGATOUR.com)<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Bubba Watson and Webb Simpson share the lead entering the final round of the Zurich Classic. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-413011","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 -
