Are the SB2K crew members going to meet the same fate? Last year in August, Justin Thomas ended the Wyndham Championship with a rather commendable position at T12, thanks to his 2-under 68 score in the final round. However, it was not good enough, as he finished 71st on the season-long FedEx Cup points list.

The result? He missed the cut at the FedEx St. Jude Championship in Memphis at hair’s breadth since only the top 70 were eligible to participate. But JT made up for it this year by making the postseason cut. However, it looks like this year, his best buddy, Jordan Spieth, might find himself in the same situation JT faced last season.

Jordan Spieth’s chances of making the cut get slimmer

Jordan Spieth began the 2024 season with a third-position finish at the Sentry in January. But that was followed by a disappointing T39 finish at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. The 13-time PGA Tour winner was disqualified from the Genesis Invitational for incorrectly marking the scorecard. Spieth missed six cuts out of the 20 events he participated in this year.

Additionally, he was only able to grab three top-10 finishes (the WM Phoenix Open and the Valero Texas Open). This has brought his FedEx ranking down to 63 on the points list. Jordan Spieth has a probability of making the cut for the playoffs, given that he keeps up with his momentum.

But truth be told, he is on the edge of it. If he ends up having another missed cut, or if any of the players who are behind him, end up having an outstanding week, that will be it for his playoff dreams this year. Well, the other remaining member of the SB2K crew seems to be in deeper waters as well!

Will Rickie Fowler be able to qualify for the playoffs?

While Justin Thomas will be playing for the first time in Greensboro since 2020 and Jordan Spieth can still cling to the hope of appearing, Rickie Fowler’s dreams are to be kept on hold until the next time. Just like Spieth, he too has six missed cuts, but the other events that he has appeared in did not go pretty well.

He has no top-10 finishes and only two top-25 finishes. His best finish was at the RBC Heritage, where he bagged a T18 finish with a 9-under. Due to a disappointing 2024 season, he is ranked 104 on the FedEx list, making his eligibility for the playoffs obsolete! Do you still think that Jordan Spieth and Rickie Fowler can somehow manage to speed up the game and make it to Greensboro? Let us know in the comments section below!
