The second annual FedExCup PGA playoffs begin this week with The Barclay’s Tournament in Paramus, New Jersey. The FedExCup spans four tournaments and rewards the top finishers with an extra bonus of up to $10 million.

Beginning the playoffs, the top ten players are:

Tiger Woods
Kenny Perry
Phil Mickelson
Padraig Harrington
Anthony Kim
Stewart Cink

Stewart Cink, who has been playing good, but not winning golf of late, captured the Travelers Championship win this past weekend by one stroke over Tommy Armour III and Hunter Mahan. Cink came in second to Tiger Woods in this year’s WGC Match Play competition, but his last win was in 2004 at the WGC-NEC Tournament in Akron.
The 35-year-old Cink, a native of Alabama, has been a pro golfer since 1995. The Travelers is his 12th professional win. Cink also made our “Eight Hottest Guys on the PGA Tour” list earlier this year.

Stewart Cink may have made our list of the hottest guys on the PGA tour, but he was no match yesterday for Tiger yesterday in the final round of the WGC-Accenture Match Play Championship. It was a good day, even by Woods’ high standards. He told the Associated Press “I think (the final 18 holes) is the best stretch I’ve ever played.”

The talk around the blogosphere is that Tiger is unstoppable. Do you agree?

It’s not unusual to see articles about the sexy girls of the LPGA, like Natalie Gublis and Michelle Wie. However, little is written about the guys on the PGA Tour. Those who stereotype might say that male golfers are all boring, white guys with beer bellies. I don’t think that’s a fair representation. In my opinion, there are plenty of hot guys on the tour, including my picks (in alphabetical order) for the top eight:
