EXIT QUESTION
Coming into the week, obviously one of the main storylines is the guys on the bubble of the FedExCup Playoffs. You weren’t on the bubble, you were 80, but this was an opportunity for you to make a big jump, which you did. You’re number 30 as we approach the Northern Trust next week. How important is it to make a jump like that the week before?

SNEDEKER: Yeah, it’s huge. Your position going into the Playoffs dictates a lot of your chances of winning the FedExCup Playoffs, dictates how you can think and play, your realistic chances of winning or not winning. As somebody who’s been fortunate enough to win before, I realize how important it is to be in a good position going into the Playoffs and also to play well when you’re there.
To be perfectly frank, I didn’t have any chance at all of winning the FedExCup Playoffs when I showed up here this week and there’s just no way, as far back as I was, I didn’t see it happening. After this week I feel like I have a chance, I feel like I kind of put myself in position where three good weeks going to East Lake, you never know what’s going to happen. I’m a guy who always gets hot. When I get hot playing golf it’s a lot of fun because I can kind of stay there for a little while and then I kind of tail off. So I’m getting hot at the right time, can’t wait for the next three weeks and trying to work my way into Atlanta and have a chance to win the FedExCup Playoffs.
