Fed-Ex Cup

So, the Fed-Ex Cup playoffs start tomorrow.  Truly, this is an exciting time, all those majors were just a warm-up for the sheer adrenaline that the playoffs will offer.  Unfortunately, I can be as sarcastic as I want to about it, but the fact is that the playoffs could hardly fail to be less exciting than the last major.  Of course, you can see my views on that here:

The Fed-Ex Cup has been going on for several years now, and while it has gotten easier to understand, it still doesn't feel very important.  I think they've run into the same problem that they ran into with the Players Championship.  Golf has four majors, and it really doesn't have room for another big tournament.  I know the LPGA has five majors this year, and it just doesn't feel right.  Inbee Park has won three out of the four, and if she wins the last one, people aren't sure if it's a Grand Slam or not.  Personally, I would say no, but that's not the point here.  The point is that golf, no matter what tour, only has room for four major tournaments, and the PGA Tour already has four.  I don't think it matters how much the Tour puffs up the Fed-Ex Cup, it will never be particularly important.
