The team are in the midst of a Champions League campaign in which they have to overcome Manchester City at the Etihad after drawing 1-1 at the Santiago Bernabéu , but plans are already underway to organise what will be the warmup games for the 2023/24 season for Los Blancos.

👋🇺🇸 Join us in the USA this summer! ⚽ #Madridistas pic.twitter.com/rDgvpySWp7 — Real Madrid C.F. 🇬🇧🇺🇸 (@realmadriden) May 12, 2023

When will Real Madrid play their games in the pre-season tour in the US?

They have announced that 23 July against Champions League semi-finalists AC Milan at the Rose Bowl Stadium in Los Angeles will be their first taste of pre-season action, with a game on 26 July against Manchester United at the NRG Stadium in Houston soon after.

Barcelona, who announced their own separate US tour, will play in El Clásico on 29 July at the AT&T Stadium in Dallas .

Madrid’s final game of the US tour will be on 2 August against Juventus at the Camping World Stadium in Orlando .

Real Madrid News

Official: real madrid squad for the us pre-season tour.

After conquering Europe against all odds last season, Real Madrid are finally set to kick off their new campaign. Carlo Ancelotti’s side will travel to the United States to participate in pre-season games, and the club officially announced the squad for the tour earlier today.

During their three-week stay overseas, Los Blancos will participate in three games. They will kick off their season with an El Clasico against Barcelona at the Allegiant Stadium on Saturday before travelling to face Club America on Tuesday.

The final game will be at the Rose Bowl Stadium when the Men in White face off against Juventus.

Karim Benzema is already in the US and will join his teammates directly before the Clasico . That said, his participation in the game against Barcelona is in doubt as the manager does not wish to risk any injuries to his star player.

New signings Aurelien Tchouameni and Antonio Rudiger have been included in the list and will be given a chance to prove their value. Given the impressive starts the duo have had in training, it would not be surprising to see both the players make their debut against Barcelona. 

Real Madrid will take on Eintracht Frankfurt in the first official game of the season in the UEFA Super Cup. Their league opener will be against newly promoted Almeria on 14th August.

The unique nature of Jude Bellingham’s injury as player faces one month out

According to a report from MARCA , the injury that Jude Bellingham suffered is particularly rare because it involves a muscle that not everyone possesses. 

It is estimated that around 10% of people do not have the thin plantar muscle, which is the muscle Bellingham has injured.

Notably, the injury is expected to keep Bellingham out of action for approximately three to four weeks and Real Madrid are planning to integrate him into the first team action during the Madrid Derby on September 29. 

This means he is likely to miss several important matches for his club and country. For Real Madrid, Bellingham is expected to miss games against Valladolid, Las Palmas, and Betis. 

Additionally, he will likely be unavailable for England’s matches against Ireland and Finland.

What kind of injury does Bellingham have?

What makes this injury particularly interesting is that it involves a part of the body that is rarely mentioned in medical reports. 

The plantar muscle, which is the one Bellingham has injured, is a long, thin muscle located behind the knee and in the calf area of the leg. 

This muscle is part of a group with the gastrocnemius and soleus muscles, which make up the superficial layer of muscles in the back of the leg.

The structure of the plantar muscle can vary greatly among individuals, both in its thickness and length. In some cases, the muscle has two distinct parts that are separated by a tendon. 

However, about 10% of people do not have this muscle at all. In fact, there is still much debate among medical professionals about the true function of the plantar muscle. 

Some theories suggest that this muscle might not have a significant role in humans anymore, especially since its removal or absence does not seem to affect the ability to sense movement or flex the leg.

That was the largest crowd for a soccer match in the U.S. since July 2018.

A whole host of highly-regarded young members of the youth setup at La Liga giants Real Madrid are in line to travel with the club’s first-team squad, for their upcoming pre-season tour of the USA.

For those not aware, the Spanish champions are primed to make their way stateside later this week.

As much, for the most part, comes with a view to ramping up their preparations for the new campaign, with friendly fixtures against some of the continent’s leading clubs having been scheduled.

Also on the agenda for Carlo Ancelotti and his coaching staff, though, will be affording a chance to impress to some of the club’s young stars.

And in line for as much, it is understood, will be no fewer than nine players currently plying their trade at academy level in Spain’s capital.

That’s according to Relevo , who have confirmed that:

‘Among the youth-team players who will be on the list of those called up for the USA will be Álvaro Rodríguez and, barring any surprises, Nico Paz , Mario Martín, César Palacios, Gonzalo, Jeremy de León, Rafael Obrador , Raúl Asencio and Lorenzo Aguado.’

Real Madrid started their tour with a 1-0 defeat to AC Milan at Soldier Field in Chicago, Illinois.

Spanish soccer giants Real Madrid started their U.S. tour as part of their preseason schedule at Soldier Field in Chicago, Illinois, on Tuesday night as they took on AC Milan in what ended with a 1-0 defeat in front of over 60,000 spectators who turned out for the big event.

It was the first of three games which Real Madrid will play, this time focusing on the east of the country after visiting the west coast in several of their more recent tours to the U.S. Excluding the years impacted by the Covid 19 pandemic, 2015 was the last summer in which Real Madrid did not visit the U.S. as part of their preseason schedule.

Real Madrid estimate that the three fixtures they will play, with Barcelona and Chelsea to follow the defeat to AC Milan, will bring in around €12 million ($13 million) in revenue for the club, according to Diario AS .

The income is expected to come in through ticket sales, with incredible demanding seeing a sell-out at Soldier Field, while tickets are also likely to sell out for the two remaining fixtures, as well as through sponsorship agreements and merchandising.

That is despite the fact that many of the team’s key players have had delayed returns due to international competitions earlier in the summer. As such, Real Madrid took on AC Milan in the second half with none of their strongest line-up from last season on the field.

Best High-Yield Savings Accounts Of 2024

Best 5% interest savings accounts of 2024, previous real madrid visits to the united states.

Club president Florentino Pérez is one of the biggest supporters of the club’s move to focus on the U.S. market, with the exception in 2015, when the team visited Australia and China, being the only year during his presidency in which an international tour did not visit the U.S.

In recent years, the club have visited the west and based themselves at University of California, Los Angeles, to then play a series of friendlies, often visiting other areas for exhibition games from their base in LA.

This is Real Madrid’s 23rd visit to the U.S., coming 97 years after their first visit in 1927. On that occasion, Los Blancos drew 1-1 against Galicia SC at Hawthorne Field in New York. The next visit wouldn’t be until 1959, when Los Angeles United were beaten 9-0, again in New York.

The club also celebrated their centenary year with a visit to the United States, facing Roma in Chicago, and they have since had a number of summer tours, with 2023 being one of their longest as they visited Los Angeles, Houston, Dallas and Orlando as part of a four-game visit.

Two more exhibition games on the east coast

Carlo Ancelotti's side will now play two more fixtures, one in New Jersey for the now traditional preseason fixture against Barcelona on Saturday, August 3rd, followed by another in Charlotte, North Carolina, against Chelsea on Tuesday, August 6th.

They will do so with more of their regular stars as they return to action following international commitments over the summer break. Rodrygo Goes rejoined the team on Tuesday, with Vinícius Júnior and Éder Militão also having touched down in the U.S.

Madrid's US tour squad: Endrick in, Mbappe and Bellingham out

R eal Madrid recently began its preseason preparations for the 2024/25 campaign that includes a tour of the United States with a revised squad. Los Blancos’ preseason schedule comprises three exhibition matches, providing valuable match practice and allowing the team to engage with their international fan base.

The team will not have a fixed training base, a shift from previous years when they were based out of UCLA. Instead, they will move across the East Coast for their games. On July 31, the inaugural match will take place at Soldier Field in Chicago, pitting Chicago versus AC Milan.

The next week, on Aug. 3, at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, there will be a preseason El Clasico matchup with Barcelona. The final game will be against Chelsea three days later at the Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, North Carolina. The squad will return to Europe on August 8 for final preparations before the Super Cup.

As a matter of strategy, Los Blancos excluded players who have reached the finals or semifinals of the European Championship or the Copa America. This decision impacts key players like Luka Modric and Andriy Lunin, who will join the tour. Meanwhile, Dani Carvajal, Ferland Mendy, Aurelien Tchouameni, Jude Bellingham, Eduardo Camavinga, and Kylian Mbappe will not participate in preseason preparations.

The rationale is to mitigate fatigue and prevent injuries. The club’s position is clear.

“ Real Madrid does not want fatigue to take over.” This is especially crucial given the intensive schedule, including the Club World Cup in the summer of 2025.

Key absences for Madrid

Kylian Mbappe, in particular, will miss the pre-season training under Antonio Pintus, focusing instead on recovery. His substitution due to exhaustion in the Euro 2024 quarterfinal against France highlighted the need for rest. Similarly, Tchouameni and Carvajal have been heavily involved in international duties and require recovery time. Tchouameni played in four of France’s five matches at the Euros. Carvajal played a crucial role in Spain’s victory over Germany.

Camavinga and Mendy, although less involved in match play, will also not join the US tour. This selective approach ensures that players needing rest receive it adequately, balancing competitive obligations with player welfare. By prioritizing physical well-being, the club aims to maximize performance and minimize injury risks for the demanding season ahead.

Who is on the squad for Real Madrid in the US tour?

Despite the absences, the Whites’ squad for the US tour includes key players and promising talents. Thibaut Courtois, Andriy Lunin, Lucas Vazquez, Jesus Vallejo, Antonio Rudiger, Fran Garcia, Luka Modric, Dani Ceballos, Arda Guler, Brahim Diaz, and Endrick will travel on July 28. Brazilian players Eder Militao, Rodrygo, and Vinicius, who played in the Copa America quarterfinals will later join them.

Seven or eight academy players will fill the gaps. These include Raul Asencio, Rafa Obrador, Mario Martin, Nico Paz, and Cesar Palacios. This approach not only manages the current squad’s physical toll but also prepares the academy players for higher-level competition.

Buying or Selling a Home? The Rules Have Changed.

On Aug. 17, real estate agents across the country began following new practices on how commissions are paid. The rules change the way buyers and sellers approach real estate transactions.

By Debra Kamin

Sweeping changes to the real estate industry are now in effect, five months after the National Association of Realtors agreed to a landmark settlement over the way agents are paid commissions.

On Aug. 17, real estate agents across the country began following new practices that require buyers to sign a form before an agent can show them a home, and may radically lower the commission they ask sellers to pay during a home sale.

For years, the standard commission has been 5 to 6 percent, shouldered by home sellers and then split between real estate agents for the seller and the buyer. That fee, while technically negotiable, was at the heart of a lawsuit brought against N.A.R. by a group of home sellers in Missouri , who said the fee was inflated. The home sellers argued that N.A.R., and brokerages who required their agents to be members of N.A.R., had violated antitrust laws by mandating that the seller’s agent make an offer of payment to the buyer’s agent, and setting rules that led to an industrywide standard commission.

Those rules are gone.

Agents are no longer allowed to make offers of commissions on the online databases used to buy and sell homes, called Multiple Listing Services, severing access to the backdoor channel agents have long used to communicate payments. So what do the changes mean for you? Here’s what to expect.

What do I need to know if I’m buying a home?

Home buyers now need to sign a written agreement with an agent before they tour a home. These agreements, meant to stipulate exactly how much a buyer is expected to pay to their agent, are required by the settlement, and are not entirely new — 18 states already required them before N.A.R. lost in court.

But now the forms are everywhere, with little uniformity to the fine print.

“Everyone is calling their forms different things. There’s no industry continuity yet. We’ll get there, but right now it’s going to be rough and tumble as this rolls out,” said Ryan Tucholski, the chief executive of the West Volusia Association of Realtors, a local association in Central Florida.

He said he has been fielding a steady stream of questions from the Realtors in his association, many of whom were in the middle of transactions when the rule changes took effect. “It’s like changing the oil of the car while it’s running,” he said.

Many agents say they plan to ask buyers to now cover a commission of 2.5 or 3 percent to make up for the portion that was previously covered by the seller. Steve Brobeck, a senior fellow at the Consumer Federation of America, an advocacy group, said he is advising buyers to consider offering a flat fee, or paying their agent by the hour, instead.

“The broker’s fee should be clearly stated, always as a dollar figure or as an hourly rate,” he advised in a report. “The dollar value of today’s percentage commissions is often underestimated by buyers. Moreover, buyer agents should not have a financial incentive to be paid more the higher the sale price.”

Those straightforward conversations, he said, will eventually drive commissions down, even if headwinds drag out the process. Laura Ellis, a broker in Chicago who serves as chief strategy officer and president of residential sales at the brokerage Baird and Warner, agrees.

“Agents are going to have more direct conversations with buyers about how they’re going to be compensated. For 100 years or so many agents were able to tell buyers, ‘Don’t worry, I’m free, we’ll go have a lovely sunny afternoon of looking at houses and go from there.’ And that whole conversation is different now,” she said.

What do I need to know if I’m selling a home?

Home sellers are now due for some immediate relief.

Because the settlement eliminates rules that require sellers’ agents to make an offer of commission to buyers’ agents, most sellers’ agents are expected to ask their clients to pay only for one side of the commission pie — a number that averages 2.5 to 3 percent now, and may be pushed downward by competitive pressure as the settlement changes continue to roll out.

Richard Hopen, a former broker who has worked with Compass and Redfin and now runs a business focused on educating home buyers, said that sellers should be informed about the changes, and make sure they understand what they’re being asked to pay.

“Sellers and agents should talk openly about reducing or even eliminating the buyer agent fee and how that could impact the seller,” he said.

How does the settlement apply to people who just sold their home?

The March 15 settlement was a nationwide class-action settlement that applies to nearly every American homeowner who sold a property in the last five years.

N.A.R. settled for $418 million, but the settlement also ensnared more than 20 brokerages that have also all settled for millions. The total damages are now more than $1 billion.

Payouts for individual home sellers are not expected to be significant, but the total amount that an average American is entitled to will depend on how many people submit claims between now and May 9, 2025. Eligibility varies depending on the state you live in, the brokerage your real estate agent worked with, and the date your home listing was entered into a multiple listing service.

FedExCup live blog: Track the top-50 race for BMW Championship spots

14 Min Read

Change Text Size

It was a topsy-turvy Sunday at the FedEx St. Jude Championship, the first leg of the three-event FedExCup Playoffs, both on the top of the leaderboard and around the crucial top-50 bubble. The tournament was not determined until the 72nd hole (where Hideki Matsuyama made birdie for a two-stroke win), nor was the top-50 bubble, where Nick Dunlap closed with a gritty par to maintain his spot inside the top 50, leaving Tom Kim as the first man out.

The top 50 in the FedExCup standings after the FedEx St. Jude Championship qualified for the second FedExCup Playoffs event, the BMW Championship at Castle Pines Golf Club in Castle Rock, Colorado. Making the BMW not only keeps players’ FedExCup hopes alive, but it also earns them spots in all of next year’s Signature Events, the exclusive tournaments that offer increased points and purses to the TOUR’s top players.

Sunday was an important day not only for this season, but also 2025, and several players like Dunlap answered the bell. Earlier in the day, Eric Cole and Max Greyserman matched 7-under 63s that pushed them from projected outside to inside the top-50 cutoff, and they sweated out scenarios throughout the day before their spots were finalized. Cam Davis and Keegan Bradley hung onto the Nos. 49 and 50 spots respectively (with Dunlap at No. 48), while just behind Kim as the first men out were Mackenzie Hughes and Maverick McNealy at Nos. 52 and 53 respectively.

Water-logged TPC Southwind rarely lacks for drama, particularly when the status-and-eligibility stakes are heightened, and Sunday delivered in a big way. Read below for a detailed account of how the top-50 bubble unfolded in real time at the FedEx St. Jude Championship.

Eric Cole and Cam Davis struggle on their 72nd hole at FedEx St. Jude.

6:02 p.m. ET: Nick Dunlap handled the moment's magnitude and is playing on.

Needing a par at the 72nd hole at TPC Southwind to solidify his place inside the top 50, Dunlap hit the fairway and green at the beastly par 4 and safely two-putted for that crucial par. Dunlap, 20, finished the week T5 and moved from No. 67 to No. 48 on the FedExCup Playoffs and Eligibility Points List. Mission accomplished.

The first man out is Tom Kim, who finished 6-6-6 on Sunday (bogey-double bogey-double bogey) en route to a T50 finish and a fall from No. 43 to No. 51 on the FedExCup. Kim graciously met the media afterward to reflect on the disappointing day, then spent a few hours awaiting his fate, which was undetermined until Dunlap's closing par in the day's final twosome.

Cam Davis and Keegan Bradley hold down the final two spots at Nos. 49 and 50 respectively, securing their tee times next week at Castle Pines and in next season's eight Signature Events.

On the top of the leaderboard, Hideki Matsuyama rallied from a double bogey and two bogeys midway through his back nine with a birdie-birdie finish for a 17-under total and two-stroke win over Xander Schauffele and Viktor Hovland.

5:50 p.m. ET: It's down to the final hole for the final spot in the BMW Championship and next year's Signature Events.

After a bogey at the par-4 17th, failing to get up and down from a greenside bunker, Nick Dunlap has surrendered his wiggle room around the bubble. Dunlap is projected No. 48 on the FedExCup and needs a par to finish inside the top 50. With a bogey, Dunlap would fall to No. 51, which would move Tom Kim to No. 50.

Dunlap began the season as an amateur and has had a wild ride, winning The American Express (the first amateur to win on TOUR in 33 years) and adding a victory at the Barracuda Championship, The 72nd hole at TPC Southwind, though, represents a new type of pressure.

Cam Davis and Keegan Bradley currently hold down the Nos. 49 and 50 spots, respectively, after sweating out the bubble for most of the day. Eric Cole and Max Greyserman, Nos. 46 and 47 respectively, each carded a final-round 63 to move inside the top-50 number in emphatic fashion.

Behind Kim, Mackenzie Hughes and Maverick McNealy are projected Nos. 52 and 53 respectively. McNealy played his last three holes Sunday in 3 under (eagle-birdie-par) for a closing 6-under 64 and a T12 finish, but his spirited effort will fall just short.

5:30 p.m. ET: While the top of the leaderboard has descended into chaos, with Hideki Matsuyama surrendering a commanding lead with a 4-over stretch on Nos. 12-15, the top-50 bubble has stabilized somewhat. (Matsuyama, through 16 holes, now shares the lead at 15 under with Viktor Hovland, through 17, and Xander Schauffele, who is in the clubhouse.)

Nick Dunlap just made birdie at the par-5 16th, moving into a tie for fourth and projected No. 45 on the FedExCup. Dunlap, 20, took care of business at the short par 5 and now faces two demanding holes as he looks to cement a spot at next week's BMW Championship. One dropped shot would project him No. 48, while two dropped shots would project him No. 51.

If Dunlap were to drop two shots, the projected No. 50 spot (all else constant) would go to Tom Kim, who played his final three holes in 5 over (bogey-double bogey-double bogey) to fall on the wrong side of the current projected bubble.

4:50 p.m. ET: Nick Dunlap is meeting the moment.

The 20-year-old drained a 15-foot birdie at the par-4 13th to move into solo fourth place, and he now has a slight cushion on the top-50 bubble. Dunlap, who entered the week at No. 67 on the FedExCup, is now projected No. 39 on the FedExCup. With a bogey, he would project to No. 48, still inside the critical cutoff, but two dropped shots would push him to projected No. 54.

Water abounds on the back nine at TPC Southwind, and if Dunlap finishes inside the top 50 to advance to the BMW Championship and qualify for next year's Signature Events, it will be well earned.

4:45 p.m. ET: Justin Rose will not advance to the BMW Championship, while Seamus Power still has a chance for an unlikely move inside the top 50.

Needing a closing birdie for a chance at breaking inside the top 50, Rose hit his tee shot at the 72nd hole into a fairway bunker; his second shot hit the lip and only advanced some 20 yards, en route to bogey. Rose is now projected No. 55 on the FedExCup standings.

Meanwhile, Seamus Power rolled in a 9-foot birdie at the par-5 16th to move into a tie for ninth at TPC Southwind and on the precipice of the top 50. With a birdie-birdie finish, he would project No. 49. It's a tall task but a doable one for the Irishman, who narrowly qualified for the Playoffs at No. 66 on the FedExCup Playoffs and Eligibility Points List.

4:15 p.m. ET: Don't count out Justin Rose.

The wily veteran moved to projected No. 53 on the FedExCup with a birdie at the par-5 16th. One more birdie would project him into the critical 50th spot, one single point (!) ahead of Keegan Bradley. The 17th and 18th are no picnic, but Rose has earned a fighting chance. He entered the week at No. 55 on the FedExCup and is currently T17 for the tournament.

Meanwhile after a frustrating bogey at the par-4 10th, where he was in decent shape just short of the green in two after a heroic second shot around trees, Nick Dunlap has fallen back on the bubble. A two-time TOUR winner this season (no FedExCup points for his win at The American Express as an amateur), Dunlap entered the week at No. 67 in the FedExCup but came to play and is currently T4 on the leaderboard. He's projected No. 47 on the FedExCup, but one bogey would project him to No. 53. He's riding the line into the final few holes in Memphis.

3:50 p.m. ET: The top-50 bubble is beginning to crystallize, but some variance remains as the final groups reach the back nine at TPC Southwind.

2025 U.S. Team Ryder Cup captain Keegan Bradley is currently hanging onto the projected No. 50 spot, after beginning the week at 39th on the FedExCup but struggling to a 1-over 281 total, near the bottom of the leaderboard. Bradley currently projects 17 points ahead of Tom Kim, who struggled to a gutting 6-6-6 finish (bogey-double-bogey-double bogey) to fall into a current T50 on the leaderboard and potentially outside a spot at next week's BMW Championship.

Maverick McNealy (projected No. 52) currently projects 10 points back of Kim, looking to fall just short after a spirited eagle-birdie-par finish Sunday for a 6-under 64.

After a final-round 63, Eric Cole (T17 this week) projects No. 47 on the FedExCup, followed by Max Greyserman (also on the strength of a closing 63) at projected No. 48. Despite a closing double bogey Sunday, Cam Davis is hanging onto the No. 49 spot and appears in good shape for now.

3:15 p.m. ET: Maverick McNealy gave it his all. Now he waits.

Riding the razor's edge of the bubble, McNealy saved par at the finishing hole after missing the fairway right off the tee and leaving his approach short of the green. He deftly lagged a 59-foot putt from the fringe to tap-in range, with the closing par good for a round of 6-under 64, one off the day's low score matched by Eric Cole and Max Greyserman.

McNealy was projected No. 50 on the FedExCup as he reached the hole, but he's now projected No. 51 after moving from a four-way T9 to a five-way T9, as Robert MacIntyre joined the tie at 9 under with a birdie at No. 11. That's how slim the current margins are.

Keegan Bradley is back into the projected No. 50 spot, eight points ahead of McNealy.

2:55 p.m. ET: Here comes Maverick McNealy!

The Stanford alum was three strokes outside the projected top 50 with three holes to play Sunday, but he just followed a bunker hole-out eagle at the par-5 16th with an 11-foot birdie at the par-5 17th. He's now T10 for the tournament and projected No. 50 on the FedExCup, just two points ahead of Keegan Bradley.

He heads to the par-4 18th, which has caused consternation for plenty of bubble characters Sunday.

2:35 p.m. ET: The leaders are on the course, with Hideki Matsuyama (through four holes) holding a four-shot lead over Nick Dunlap, but the central focus lies on the projected FedExCup standings, specifically the No. 50 spot. Pressure has mounted throughout the day, as evidenced by closing double bogeys by Cam Davis and Tom Kim that could cost them a trip to the BMW Championship and a spot in next year's Signature Events.

After completing a final-round 68 for a 1-over 281 total, Keegan Bradley (currently T59 this week) holds the projected No. 50 spot on the FedExCup. He's projected 19 points ahead of Kim for the final spot, with Kim currently T52 for the week. It is unlikely that Kim's leaderboard position could improve enough to pass Bradley, so Kim is likely reliant on other players currently on the course to lose ground, potentially one of Nick Dunlap, Viktor Hovland or Will Zalatoris.

2:10 p.m. ET: Tom Kim is the latest victim of TPC Southwind's par-4 18th hole, and it might cost him a place in next year's Signature Events.

After a bogey-double bogey stretch on Nos. 16 and 17, Kim tugged his tee shot into the water hazard left of the fairway en route to a double bogey. Kim dropped, played his 252-yard third shot to 38 yards short-right of the green, pitched to 8 feet and couldn't convert.

Kim is now projected No. 51 on the FedExCup, falling from projected No. 49 after the closing double bogey. The current beneficiary is Keegan Bradley, who assumes the projected No. 50 spot, 18 points ahead of Kim.

Players still on the course projected to surpass Kim this week include Viktor Hovland, Nick Dunlap, Denny McCarthy and Will Zalatoris. Things certainly look dicey for Kim at the moment, but he still has a realm of moving back inside the top 50.

1:50 p.m. ET: Things are getting dicey for Tom Kim, who was projected safely inside the top 50 until a stunning turn of events down the stretch. Kim made bogey at the short par-5 16th (from just 200 yards in the fairway for his second shot), followed by a double bogey at the par-4 17th. Kim entered the week at No. 43 on the FedExCup, stands T41 for the tournament and is projected No. 49 on the FedExCup as he reaches the 18th tee.

Players who finish the week outside the top 50 are not guaranteed access to Signature Events in 2025.

1:10 p.m. ET: The current bubble boy is Max Greyserman, holding down the all-important projected No. 50 spot, as he braces for a long afternoon of waiting on the margins.

Greyserman was projected No. 51 after concluding a final-round 63, jumping roughly 30 spots from T62 on the leaderboard, and he moved to projected No. 50 after Cam Davis' potentially costly double bogey at No. 18 (Davis is now projected No. 51).

Such was Greyserman's minimal faith in his chances of finishing inside the top 50, he had already canceled his flight to next week's BMW Championship, planning to return home to Florida. The PGA TOUR rookie began the week at No. 47 on the FedExCup but was projected outside the top 50 for most of the tournament, hindered by an opening-round 75. He battled back with rounds of 68-70-63, though, to give himself a fighting chance.

"Hit refresh a lot on the phone," Greyserman said afterward. "I mean, I already canceled my flight to Denver and booked a flight home to Florida. I’m going to have to wait and see, obviously. Hopefully it goes my way, but at the end of the day there’s nothing I can do. I kind of shot myself out of it after that first round and just tried to battle back, played pretty solid the last three days, did all I could. I wish I just didn’t have that bad of a first day."

1 p.m. ET: The twosome of Eric Cole and Cam Davis played the par-4 18th in a combined 3 over, and they're now in for a stressful afternoon on the bubble. Cole departed the green, though, with the more pleasant taste in his mouth.

After pulling his drive into the water hazard left of the 18th fairway, Cole laid up to 86 yards and got up and down with a 15-footer, punctuated by a sterling fist pump, to save bogey for a round of 7-under 63. Meanwhile Davis tugged his second shot from the right rough into the same hazard, left of the green, and failed to get up and down as his 14-foot bogey try slid by. Davis shot a final-round 67 despite the potentially devastating double bogey.

Cole, the reigning PGA TOUR Rookie of the Year, entered the week at No. 54 on the FedExCup and is currently projected No. 49.

Davis, who made his Presidents Cup debut for the International Team in 2022, entered the week at No. 44 on the FedExCup and is currently projected No. 51.

12:15 p.m. ET: It's just past noon and the leaders aren't even on the course yet, but there's been plenty of action already.

Max Greyserman's late-season run continues. He finished runner-up in his last two starts before the Playoffs to arrive in Memphis at No. 47 in the FedExCup. The heartbreak of last week's Wyndham Championship -- where he lost a four-shot lead over the final five holes -- was contrasted by his strong finish seven days later. He shot 63 today to give himself a chance of making the BMW, holing a must-make 11-footer for par on the final hole. He's currently 51st in the projected standings, though, so he'll need some help.

Eric Cole also is making an early move Sunday. His birdie on 15, where he knocked a wedge stiff, moved him to 44th in the projected standings, 10 spots better than his position at the start of the week. Cole, the 2023 PGA TOUR Rookie of the Year, is 7 under through 15 today.

Eric Cole's gorgeous approach from 103 yards sets up birdie at FedEx St. Jude
