Green Posse

He may have finished well behind the leaders at the Tour Championship in Atlanta this weekend, but Vijay Singh took home a big paycheck anyway as the winner of the 2008 FedEx Cup. Singh, who won the first two of the four playoff tournaments had such a huge lead going into this weekend’s tournament that his winning was all but guaranteed. Only his being disqualified or dropping out of the tournament would have prevented him from winning the $10 million bonus. Singh, 45, has three PGA tour wins this season and 34 total in his career (the 14th highest of all time).

This is the second year for the FedEx Cup. Tiger Woods won the title in 2007.
