1. Justin Thomas
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $9,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $8,694,821

Although he finished seventh on the FedEx points list, Thomas was the leading money earner in 2017-18. Prior to the FedEx Cup, that held a lot more prestige, but considering the FedEx bonus is more than anyone earned on the course last season, it obviously has lost some luster. It is an important number for salary cap leagues, however, as Thomas enters this season with the highest price tag. Thomas won three times last season and five times the season prior. He's in the conversation of best golfer alive, and there's no reason to think he falls out of that conversation this season. As mentioned, though, the price tag is too high for salary cap purposes this season. In draft leagues he could go as high as No. 1, but shouldn't fall below third or fourth overall.

2. Dustin Johnson
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $9,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $8,457,352

DJ is in a downward spiral and there's no telling when he's going to pull out. His earnings have declined two straight seasons and odds are, this season will make three. Of course, when the starting point is $9.4 million in earnings, it's pretty easy to drop from there. All joking aside, DJ's numbers have declined the past two seasons, but he's still above $8 million in earnings. It seems as though there's nothing DJ can do to live up to expectations as three consecutive $8 million seasons have left us wanting more. Perhaps it's the lack of majors that leads to this unmet expectations narrative. Whatever the case, DJ doesn't care about expectations, he'll just keep on chugging along making $8 million a season. There's always a chance that DJ could take his game to another level, but the competition is so strong right now that's it's highly unlikely.

3. Brooks Koepka
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $8,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $7,094,047

Koepka established himself as perhaps the best major golfer in the world last season. All of this after he started the season on the DL with a wrist injury as well. That injury limited Koepka to just 17 events last season, but he still managed to win twice and post a career-high in earnings. Koepka has won three of the past six majors, five of which he has played and it's clear that when he's focused, he's one of the best, if not the best, golfer in the world. There in lies the issue though as Koepka all but admitted after his PGA Championship victory that he gets up for majors and struggles to do the same during regular PGA Tour events. It's hard to imagine that Koepka won't figure that part out soon and if he does, then the sky is the limit. Koepka comes with a huge price tag this season, but he does have the potential to reach $10 million if everything goes right.

4. Justin Rose
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $7,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $8,130,678

Rose was the FedEx champion last season and deservedly so. Rose played at a high- evel the entire season, something that nobody else can claim. The numbers are amazing, 17 starts, 15 top-25s, 11 top-10s, six top-3s, three runner-ups and two wins. More than $8 million in earnings and a $10 million FedEx bonus. Prior to last season, Rose was long considered as a very good golfer, yet he was normally excused from the "elite" conversation, but that should change now. Rose is undoubtedly a first-round draft choice and is likely a top-5 pick, but he's nearly undraftable in salary cap leagues. He'd have to crack $10 million next season to be a decent value in a salary cap format.

5. Bryson DeChambeau
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $7,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $8,094,489

DeChambeau's ascent to the top of the PGA Tour hasn't taken long. DeChambeau first hit the scene in 2016 and he quickly made his mark. In his first full season on the PGA Tour, he picked up a runner-up at the Puerto Rico Open and a win at the John Deere Classic. Things were certainly looking up for DeChambeau and there was an expectation that he would continue to improve in 2017-18. To say he improved though is a huge understatement. DeChambeau blew all expectations out of the water with three wins and more than $8 million. The next step, of course, is a major, but whether he wins one this season, it will be tough to top what he accomplished last season. As such, he's not an option in salary cap formats. In draft formats he's a first-round pick.

6. Tiger Woods
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $7,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $5,443,841

The long and winding road lead to a victory at the Tour Championship last season. Perhaps it was apropos that Tiger would wait until the final event to finally get back into the winner's circle. Unlike his previous comebacks, this one was predicated on patience and nothing was to be rushed, not even winning apparently. Now that the seal is broken, this phenomenon could go in a couple directions. Tiger could continue to improve and be a factor at every major, possibly winning one or two this season or he could perform near the level that he did last season. There is a third path, one in which Tiger regresses is possible as well, but not likely. Tiger has it figured out again, whether that means he can win at a high- evel again is unknown, but at this point, only an injury will send him down the third path.

7. Jason Day
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $7,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $5,087,461

After a 2016-2017 season where Day failed to crack the $3 million mark, Day was a very popular salary cap selection last season and he didn't disappoint. Day picked-up two wins and a runner-up on his way to over $5 million in earnings. It was definitely a good season, even by Day's standards, but he did leave enough room to be considered for salary cap purposes. Day topped $8 million in 2015 and $9 million in 2016, so the upside is certainly there. The good news is, he doesn't even need to get back to those levels to be of value in salary cap leagues. Day has a gear that makes him elite when he's on. If he finds that gear for any prolonged stretch this season, he'll hit the $7 million mark.

8. Tony Finau
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $6,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $5,620,138

Finau has been a solid player since joining the PGA Tour in 2015, but last season he took his game to another level. Finau averaged over $2 million in earnings over his first three seasons on the PGA Tour, but last season he blew that number out of the water with over $5.6 million in earnings. The strange thing is, he managed to put up his career-best numbers without a victory. He does have a win on his resume, but that came two seasons back. Last season he merely picked-up three runner-up finishes. Those runner-ups add up however and when you make nearly every cut, those checks add up as well. Finau's best golf is likely still ahead of him, but he doesn't have much upside left in salary cap leagues this season. In draft leagues he's a solid second-rounder.

9. Jon Rahm
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $5,500,000
2017-18 Earnings: $3,992,678

There aren't many players on the PGA Tour that could finish inside the top-25 on the FedEx list and consider the season a disappointment, but that's exactly the case for Rahm. Rahm, by most accounts, is destined for greatness on the golf course and in this day and age where greatness emerges immediately, the fact that he's fallen behind some of his peers is a little concerning. The good news for Rahm however is that he's only 23. All of these "young guns" on the PGA Tour right now. Rahm is younger than just about all of them. He has plenty of time to figure everything out. For starters, he needs to work on his temper, which will continue to hamper his progress, especially at the majors, but it's not like he's in uncharted waters there, many before have had similar issues. Rahm will get it figured out and at his current price, it might be worth betting on him figuring it out this season.

10. Jordan Spieth
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $5,250,000
2017-18 Earnings: $2,793,536

Perhaps the most disappointing $2.7 million-plus season in the history of the PGA Tour. For most guys, his 2017-2018 numbers would be more than acceptable, but for Spieth, it's a complete disaster. Prior to last season, Spieth averaged over four top-2s per season. Last season, he didn't have a single top-2. Most of the blame can be attributed to his putting. Since joining the PGA Tour in 2013, Spieth has been an elite putter. Last season, he wasn't even an average putter, he was just flat-out a poor putter. He ended the season ranked 136th on the PGA Tour in strokes-gained putting. Now for the good news, he's absolutely going to bounce back this season. He's too talented and too strong between the ears to let this linger. He'll figure out his putter in the off-season and be back to challenging for majors before you know it. He's a must-have in salary cap formats and he's still a first-rounder in draft formats.

11. Rickie Fowler
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $5,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $4,235,237

Is this the year? It's the same refrain every season for Fowler. Is this the year he breaks through? Fowler has accomplished a lot in his career, but he's missing that elusive major. He's also finished inside the top-10 on the FedEx list just once. He's seemingly been on the cusp of that elite level since he first joined the PGA Tour. Fowler has been on the PGA Tour for nine full seasons and he has over $34 million in earnings, yet he has only four wins. There's no questions that the hype around Fowler has always outpaced his play, but that doesn't mean that he's not legit. The question when considering Fowler is, will he take the next step this season? If so, then he's worth the price in a salary cap league. If not, he'll end up near the same spot on the money list again next year. There's little risk with Fowler, but will he ever reach his potential? It feels like he's getting closer and at the very least, he should contend at a major or two this season.

12. Patrick Cantlay
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $5,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $3,963,962

Cantlay entered the PGA Tour with a lot of hype and through two seasons, he hasn't disappointed. Cantlay earned over $2 million in just 13 starts two seasons ago and he topped that last season with nearly $4 million in earnings. Cantlay picked-up his first PGA Tour victory in the fall of last season, but unlike many before him whose game dropped-off after a win, Cantlay kept his foot on the accelerator. Cantlay scored six more top-10s the rest of the way and he missed only two cuts all season. If there is a weak spot to this point, it's his performance at the majors. Cantlay earned only one top-25 at the majors last season. He should improve in that area this season, which should lead to an increase in earnings, possibly enough to make him a decent salary cap option.

13. Rory McIlroy
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $4,800,000
2017-18 Earnings: $4,410,296

McIlroy has gone from one of the most consistent forces on the PGA Tour to one of the most confusing. McIlroy set the bar impossibly high by picking up four majors early in his career and he's struggled to live up to heightened expectations ever since. McIlroy has all the physical tools, but there seems to be a mental aspect that his holding him back. He has no problem getting into contention during the biggest events, but he struggles when expectations rise, like when he's in the lead. It isn't going to get any easier to close as the longer it takes to get another major, the more the pressure grows, but whether or not he wins another major, he should still continue to produce big numbers. The problem is, he's only topped $5 million just once in the past four seasons and that's the number he must attain in order to be of value in salary cap leagues.

14. Hideki Matsuyama
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $4,750,000
2017-18 Earnings: $2,687,477

What a strange and ultimately frustrating season for Matsuyama. Matsuyama's year started just fine, with a T4 at the Sentry Tournament of Champions and a T12 at the Farmers, but it all started to fall apart with because of a wrist injury at the Waste Management Open. It's an event that he had won the previous two seasons and not only did he not win there, but his wrist would hamper his production for much of the season. He did start to find some momentum near the end of the season, but his game had become wildly erratic by then. Frustrating for owners who had Matsuyama last season for sure, but the upside is, he's available at a discount price this season. As such, Matsuyama is very close to a must-have this season as he's averaged over $6 million per season in the two seasons leading up to last season.

15. Bubba Watson
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $4,500,000
2017-18 Earnings: $5,793,748

Watson's game hit a snag in 2016-17 as he carded only four top-10s and earned little more than $1.2 million. It was the second consecutive season in which his production had dropped dramatically from the season prior. There was every reason to think that Watson had just lost his game. And then he decided that he was going to win three times in 2017-18. In other words, Bubba is back. In true Bubba fashion, he did most of his work early in the season, so his late-season fade isn't too concerning. What is concerning is the price tag for this season. While he was almost a "must-have" entering last season, he's nearly a "can't take" entering this season. Expect his production to drop this season, but not because his game has left him, but because $5.7 million is a huge earnings number and not many golfers can post a number like that in consecutive years.

16. Patrick Reed
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $4,500,000
2017-18 Earnings: $5,006,267

Reed was on top of the world at the end of the 2016 season. He had just come off a season where he posted earnings of over $5.6 million and he was leading Team U.S.A. to a victory at the Ryder Cup. The sky was the limit for Reed. When the following season started though, Reed didn't have that edge any longer. Well, maybe he had the edge, but he didn't have the same game that helped him defeat Rory McIlroy at the 2016 Ryder Cup. The 2016-2017 season wasn't terrible, but it sure was a letdown. After a slow start to last season, people were beginning to doubt Reed and then he decided to win the Masters. That win was certainly out of the blue, but it reminded everyone that Reed is one of the best fiver golfers in the world when he's on. Reed should be able to maintain some of this momentum next season, but he set the bar pretty high last year. As such, he's not a great salary cap option this season.

17. Tommy Fleetwood
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $4,500,000
2017-18 Earnings: $3,935,147

Fleetwood was one of the bigger surprises of the 2017-18 season. Fleetwood gained some attention with a top-5 at the 2017 U.S. Open, but it wasn't until last season that most golf fans became aware of how good he was. Fleetwood made a mad dash at the 2018 U.S. Open with a final-round 63, only to come up just short. That wasn't the only time he impressed though. Fleetwood totaled six top-10s throughout the season and missed just one cut in 19 starts. Perhaps most impressive, Fleetwood finished inside the top-25 in 15 of his 19 starts. Fleetwood looks like the real deal, but as is the case with all golfers that have a breakout season, it's nearly impossible to take him in a salary cap format. Fleetwood earned nearly $4 million last season in just 19 starts. He'll have to win at least one time this season to significantly improve upon his number from last season, all the while playing at level similar to last season. Fleetwood has the potential to make much more money this season vs. last season, but the risk seems a bit too high.

18. Cameron Smith
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $4,500,000
2017-18 Earnings: $3,622,607

Smith has had a bit of an odd journey to get to this point on the PGA Tour. He earned his card by playing well as a non-member in 2015, but his game left him the following season as a PGA Tour rookie. He found his game the following season when he earned over $2 million and expectations were high entering last season. He wasted no time living up to those expectations as he earned five top-6 finishes in his first 12 starts last season. Smith's game oddly left him though over a five-start stretch where he failed to make a single cut. He regained his form at the end of the season however as he picked-up consecutive 3rd-place finishes to start the FedEx Cup Playoffs. Smith should continue to improve this season and his price tag is in a decent spot for salary cap purposes.

19. Webb Simpson
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $4,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $5,376,417

Simpson's first two seasons on the PGA Tour were nothing special, but he played well enough to keep his card after each seasons. His third season however was incredible. Simpsons picked-up two wins and three runner-up finishes that season on his way to over $6 million in earnings. This was in 2011, when $6 million seasons weren't nearly as common as they are now. In other words, for at least one season, Simpson was about as good as anyone. He followed that up with his first major the next season and everything was looking up. And then ... well, then nothing much happened ... relatively anyway. Simpson played well in the years following his major, but nothing approaching his stellar 2011 campaign until last season. Simpson found that magic once again last season as he surpassed the $5 million mark for the second time in his PGA Tour career. That said, Simpson's number is a bit out of reach in salary cap formats this season.

20. Billy Horschel
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $4,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $4,315,200

Horschel made a mad dash at the end of the season and actually had a chance to win the FedEx Cup Playoffs, but he fell just short. Horschel is no stranger to making runs at the end of the season as he made a furious run to a FedEx title in 2014. At the time, it was Horschel's second consecutive season above $3.5 million in earnings and it looked like he was ascending to the top-tier of the PGA Tour. Horschel's game fell off the following two seasons, but he got back on track two seasons ago with his 4th career win on the PGA Tour. He picked up win No. 5 last season and he appears to be heading in the right directions. That said, the bar is set too high for salary cap purposes this season. In draft leagues he's a second- or third-round pick.

21. Xander Schauffele
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $4,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $4,047,538

Schauffele is nothing if not consistent. Schauffele surprised the golf world by topping $4 million during his rookie season and he followed that up with another $4 million season in his second year on the PGA Tour. The only difference in the two seasons was the way he went about making that money. In his first season, he picked-up two victories, one of which came at the Tour Championship. In his second season, he failed to win, but he had more high-end finishes that he did in his rookie season and he was generally more consistent. It's certainly a good sign that Schauffele has proved he can find success in different ways, but there's no way to know if he can significantly improve upon the $4 million number. As such, Schauffele carries a lot of risk entering this season for salary cap purposes.

22. Kyle Stanley
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $4,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $3,916,001

Stanley has been here there and everywhere in his PGA Tour career. Stanley started his career on a high-note, with a win in his second season, but he hit a rough patch in his fourth season where he failed to crack $500k in earnings. Things didn't get any better in the following two season either, but during the 2016-2017 season, Stanley played the best golf of his life, picking up another victory and over $3.4 million in earnings. He put any talk of a fluke season to rest last season when he picked-up two runner-up showings. Though he's been on the PGA Tour for quite a while, Stanley is only 30 and he should be entering his peak years. The issue this season is his cap number, which happens to be higher than any previous season.

23. Marc Leishman
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $4,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $3,771,221

Leishman closed 2016-17 with a flourish, but he was unable to do so in 2017-18. Leishman still posted good numbers, ending the season in the top-30 on the FedEx points list, but it was not comparable to what he had done the previous season. In fact, Leishman actually had his second-best season on the PGA Tour last year, but he dropped so far from his numbers the previous season, that it felt like a let down. The problem when considering Leishman for this season is, can he duplicate what he did at the end of the 2016-17 season? If not, he can't get back to nearly $6 million in earnings, which makes him tough to select in a salary cap format. There's no reason to hold back in other formats, though, as he should slot in right around $4 million this season.

24. Alex Noren
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $3,750,000
2017-18 Earnings: $2,699,150

Noren came to the PGA Tour last season via the European Tour and he arrived with a lot of hype. Though he failed to win on the PGA Tour last season, he lived up to that hype for the most part. Noren made the cut in 14 of 18 starts, posted 10 top-25s and three top-3 finishes. Noren is 36 years old, so he's not among the young crop that is taking over the PGA Tour, but he's still got plenty of years left to make a mark and if he continues to play like he did last season, it won't be long before he picks-up his first PGA Tour win. He comes with a hefty price tag this season, but Noren has the ability to make a significant improvement upon his number from last season. He'll have to win somewhere to do so, but he's certainly capable of doing that.

25. Francesco Molinari
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $3,500,000
2017-18 Earnings: $5,065,842

Molinari has been around for a while, but it wasn't until last season that he captured the attention of the entire golf world. Molinari did so by capturing the Open Championship. Just a month prior, he had picked-up his first official victory at the Quicken Loans. For the span of about four weeks, Molinari was the best golfer on the planet. Not surprisingly, Molinari was unable to keep up that pace and he faded towards the end of the season. There is no reason to think that Molinari's game will fall off greatly this season, but there's also little to no chance that he can improve upon his numbers from last season. With that in mind, he's not a good salary cap option this week. As for other formats, Molinari has plenty of value as he'll compete at all the majors and WGC events.

26. Keegan Bradley
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $3,500,000
2017-18 Earnings: $4,069,464

It was a long time between victories on the PGA Tour for Bradley, but when he topped Justin Rose at the BMW Championship, he ended a five-year drought. Bradley started his PGA Tour fast, picking up three wins in his first two seasons, including a major, but his decline was nearly as fast as his ascent. Bradley bottomed-out three seasons ago when he failed to crack the $1 million mark, but he showed some progress the following season and he made it all the way back last season. It will be interesting to see where he goes from here as he was pretty much an after through for much of the past few years. Odds are he'll fall back a little this season as he set the bar pretty high last season.

27. Paul Casey
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $3,500,000
2017-18 Earnings: $3,641,771

Casey has had three acts on the PGA Tour in his career. The first was positive, with a win in 2012 and a pair of solid seasons in which he topped $2 million in earnings. The second act was tough as he failed to win during any of the next four seasons and he was unable to crack the $1 million mark. His third act has been as good as the first, if not better. Last season, Casey picked-up his first win since 2012 and he again topped the $3 million mark. It was Casey's fourth consecutive season above the $3 million mark. Casey doesn't appear to be slowing down, but at 41, he's probably not going to get any better either. As such, expect a similar output this season as last season.

28. Kevin Na
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $3,500,000
2017-18 Earnings: $3,578,316

Kevin Na is best known for his slow play and once posting a 16 on a hole, but he should be best known for being an amazingly consistent golfer the last decade. Since surpassing $2 million in 2011, Na has only dropped below once when playing a full season and that was the 2016-2017. How did he respond to dropping below $2 million? He came back with his best earnings number of his career last season. Na is a top-25 machine and he routinely posts multiple top-5s every season, but he's just not flashy. Some might even call him boring, because of his pace of course, but the checks all cash the same. Still, he set the bar awfully high last season, so he's probably not in-play as a salary cap pick, but he's a very valuable draft pick as he'll likely go later than he should.

29. Luke List
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $3,500,000
2017-18 Earnings: $2,710,736

List is definitely on the way up, but after showing large increases in his earnings over the past three seasons, has he peaked? That's the question entering this season as List posted an impressive earnings total of over $2.7 million last season. List does everything well on his way to the green, but then he pulls out the putter and all bets are off. List ranked 182nd on the PGA Tour in strokes-gained putting last season and he was 176th the season prior. There's definitely an issue there, but if he can improve, even slightly, he could be pushing the $4 million mark this season. List will enter this season as a high risk, high reward guy, but he might just be worth the risk.

30. Austin Cook
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $3,500,000
2017-18 Earnings: $2,448,920

Cook started his rookie season on the PGA Tour off in-style with a win at The RSM Classic in the fall and although he had only one other top-5 for the rest of the season, it was certainly a successful campaign. Cook got it done on and around the greens last season as he ranked 53rd on the PGA Tour in strokes-gained around the green and 39th in strokes-gained putting. His putting was no fluke, he's always been good with the blade, but up until last season, he was a heck of a ball-striker as well. Perhaps he didn't adjust to the new venues as well and unfamiliarity with the course lead to some issues off the tee and approaching the green. Whatever the case, it's something he should remedy this season and as long as he continues to putt well, he should produce at a higher level this season.

31. Emiliano Grillo
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $3,300,000
2017-18 Earnings: $2,493,163

Grillo has spent three seasons on the PGA Tour and he's fared well in all three. He's also only 26, which means he should be entering his peak pretty soon. If that's the case, Grillo should be in for some really big seasons soon. Grillo's best season was his first, when he picked-up his first win and more than $3 million in earnings. Although he peaked in his rookie season three years ago, he hasn't exactly embarrassed himself the last two seasons. In his rookie season, Grillo struck the ball very well, but couldn't putt. He somehow figured out how to putt last season and he still struck the ball as well. His stats would indicate that he had a great season last year, but the earnings number would beg to differ. That said, if he continues to putt well, he'll get the results. Grillo comes at a steep price this season, but he just might be worth it.

32. Byeong Hun An
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $3,200,000
2017-18 Earnings: $2,599,264

An has performed well on the PGA Tour, really since day one. He played 14 events as a non-member in 2016 and won nearly $1 million. As a full-time member the following season, An finished inside the top-100 on the FedEx points list. Last season, his third on the PGA Tour, An upped his game even more, finishing runner-up twice and pulling-in over $2.5 million. An is tremendous from tee to green, ranking in the top-25 in strokes-gained off the tee as well as strokes-gained on approach to the green. He's even pretty good with his short game, but he just can't putt very well. He did show improvement from years two to three, however, and he's so bad at putting currently, that even a slight improvement on the green could result in a big gain in money and FedEx points. The problem is, he set the bar pretty high last season. But An looks like the real deal and he should have enough upside to justify a salary cap selection this season ... if he improves his putting.

33. Phil Mickelson
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $3,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $4,595,187

Mickelson is coming off a surprisingly productive season. One in which he picked up a win at a WGC event and again played his way onto the Ryder Cup team at the age of 48. Mickelson's earnings of just over $4.5 million was the highest number he had posted since 2013, which was also the last time he had won on the PGA Tour. It was a great season all the way around, but unfortunately, it was one that he won't be able to replicate. Mickelson struggled towards the end of last season and that's a sign of things to come as he gets closer to 50. He'll still have some moments and he's not losing his card anytime soon, but his top-30 days are probably behind him. As such, he's not an option in salary cap leagues this season.

34. Aaron Wise
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $3,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $3,486,407

Wise wasn't among the top of his Web.com Tour class prior to his entrance to PGA Tour, so expectations weren't exactly high for him, and there was nothing on the course that Wise did early last season to catch much attention, but that changed at the Wells Fargo Championship in May. Wise finished runner-up at the Wells Fargo and in case anyone thought that effort was a fluke, he put all questions to bed the following week when he won the At&T Byron Nelson. He did miss five cuts directly following that win, but he recovered with a pair of top-10s later in the season. If Wise had a long track record of success, he might be in-play in salary cap formats this season, but since we only have one year to go no, he simply carries too much risk.

35. Gary Woodland
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $3,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $3,108,907

Woodland appears at times to have a ton of potential, but after eight years on the PGA Tour, it's pretty clear that Woodland is what he is. He's a solid golfer, who is going to win from time to time, contend often and earn around $3 million per year. Holding Woodland back is his putter as he's just not that good on the greens. He's been decent to awful on the greens throughout his career and after eight years on the PGA Tour, he's not likely to completely figure out putting. As such, it's unlikely that he'll ever see a big bump in earnings during any given season.

36. Kevin Kisner
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $3,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $2,972,285

Simply put, Kisner is just a bulldog. He doesn't look like your typical golfer, heck, he doesn't even look like an athlete, but more often than not, he gets the job done. Kisner's breakout season came in 2015 when he finished runner-up three times and earned over $3 million for the first time. He followed that up with wins in each of the next two seasons and he peaked with earnings of over $4.7 million in 2017. His production fell a bit last season, but not so much that it would indicate his game is regressing. Kisner should go in the first three-to-four rounds of a draft, but his number is always just too high to be a salary cap selection. His number is the lowest its been in the past four years however, so he's worth a look, but there probably isn't enough upside to justify his selection.

37. Henrik Stenson
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $3,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $2,680,487

It's hard to recall how Stenson earned more than $2.6 million last season, and that's because his best finish came way back at the season-opening event in late October. He had a nice stretch in spring as well, which resulted in three top-10s, but the second half of the season was terrible. Well, not terrible for the average golfer, but terrible for Stenson. Stenson fought through an elbow injury, which undoubtedly affected his performance, but his price for this season doesn't really reflect any missing time. As such, it's not an easy call with Stenson this season as he's bound to play better if he's healthy, but can he get back to say, $3 million? Stenson has topped $3 million just three times in the last six seasons, and although he has a huge upside, he's probably not worth the price this year in salary cap leagues. In all other formats, Stenson still has plenty of value however.

38. Adam Scott
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $3,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $2,237,641

After a subpar 2017 season and a slow start to the 2018 season, Scott was all but left for dead…and then he regained his putting stroke. A resurgent putter lead to a solo-third at the PGA Championship and a T5 at the NTO, which essentially saved his season. Whereas Scott was once one of the more reliable guys on tour, now he's as tough to peg as anyone out there. Scott earned over $6 million in 2016, but he earned less than $2 million in the seasons prior to and after that season. His upside remains, if he can putt and it looks like he figured something out late last season, which makes Scott an interesting salary cap option this season. He's certainly not a safe pick, but he has tremendous upside.

39. Joaquin Niemann - I
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $3,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,209,958

Priority Category No. 21 states that if a non-member in a season equals the number of points by the No. 125th-ranked golfer from the previous season, he gets a card for the next season. Niemann did that, so he has a card for 2018-19 and he potentially will have a significant impact. The still-not-20-year-old Chilean sensation played 13 tournaments, 12 as a pro after missing the cut at the Masters, and notched four top-10s and six top-25s. Only 36 guys had more top-10s, and Niemann had the same number as Rickie Fowler, Francesco Molinari, Brandt Snedeker and Ian Poulter, among others. Let's talk stats: Niemann ranked second in greens in regulation, 12th in strokes gained: off the tee, fifth in strokes gained: approach and 15th in both strokes gained: tee-to-green and total. That, gamers, is the real deal. He needs to work on his putting, which was middle of the road, and his scrambling, which was horrible. Niemann earned a little more than $1.2 million, which would've placed him 101st on the money list. But remember, he played only half a season. Double it and he'd have finished about 44th in earnings. And then if you think he can get better in his first full season on Tour, then maybe we're talking about top-30 and the Tour Championship for Niemann.

40. Sergio Garcia - C
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $3,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $878,354

Garcia was one of 13 players to make the FedExCup playoffs each year since 2007, but his streak ended this season as he finished 128. The 2017-18 season was one of disappointment for Sergio, who went from winning his first major the year prior to just three top-10s and zero top-3 finishes for the first time since 2011. Sergio is still one of the world's best but his limited play and poor performance this year held him back from full PGA Tour status. He'll still qualify for many of the biggest events by virtue of his history and top-50 world ranking, but he'll need to up his game if he wants to return back to the FedExCup playoffs next year. Expect Sergio to breach the $2M mark as he has in the six seasons prior to this one and everything to be back to equilibrium for the Spaniard.

41. Tyrrell Hatton
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $2,900,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,943,360

Hatton was the latest in a string of European Tour regulars to give it a try on the PGA Tour and he fared rather well in his first season. More often than not, the Euro Tour to the PGA Tour experiment fails, but Hatton has enough game to make it work. Hatton had four top-10s in 16 starts, but only one top-5 last season. Hatton actually left a lot out there and he probably would have fared better had he had more experience playing on the PGA Tour. That won't be an issue this year as he'll be more familiar with his routine this season and that should result in better overall numbers. The problem is the number of events he'll play. He only played 16 last season and there's no reason to expect anything different this season. Hatton's floor should be right about where he finished last season and his ceiling could be as high as double what he made last season.

42. Brandt Snedeker
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $2,800,000
2017-18 Earnings: $2,448,970

Snedeker spent several years as one of the top players on the PGA Tour. He was not quite in the elite category because he failed to win a major, but he was right below that group, often threatening to bust down the doors. Injuries have hampered his growth over the past few years however and he's not quite the same guy he was as recently as five years ago. That said, Snedeker posted his best numbers in years last season and he might be ready to make another charge at the top of the tour. Snedeker is in his late-30s, which means he's past his peak, but he still has a few high-quality years left. He set the bar pretty high last season, but there's a chance that he could significantly improve upon his number from last season.

43. Daniel Berger
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $2,800,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,721,763

There aren't many players in the history of the PGA Tour that accomplished more than Daniel Berger did in his first three seasons. In his first three years on the PGA Tour, Berger won two events, finished runner-up at four other events and earned over $10 million. He came out of the gates quickly in his rookie season, when he earned over $3 million and he improved upon that number in each of the two seasons that followed. Everything was looking up heading into the 2017-2018 season and then? Well, it's unknown exactly what happened to Berger last season, but there's no denying something was off. How does a guy play that well for three seasons, then lose most of his game? Maybe it was an injury, maybe it was something personal, whatever the reason, his resume is too good to give up on him after just one subpar season.

44. Brian Harman
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $2,750,000
2017-18 Earnings: $2,733,463

Harman was the surprise of the 2016-2017 season and he picked-up right where he left off last season with top-10s in his first five starts last season. Unfortunately, Harman wasn't able to carry that momentum through the season and he ended the year with a whimper. Harman is a high-end golfer, he's topped $2 million in earnings in three of his past five seasons, but it's hard to look at his 2016-2017 as anything other than an aberration. Harman should continue to produce at a level near what he did last season for the foreseeable future. As such, he's not going to be a good salary cap option unless he has a down season, which again, is unlikely anytime soon.

45. Andrew Landry
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $2,750,000
2017-18 Earnings: $2,642,179

Landry was a rookie on the PGA Tour during the 2015-2016 season and to put it lightly, he wasn't very good. He got his game back together the following season while on the Web.com Tour, which bought him another opportunity on the PGA Tour. He didn't waste his opportunity this time. Landry has won events in three of his past four seasons, two of which were on the Web.com Tour, but hey, winning is tough on any tour. The point is, the rough rookie season on the PGA Tour looks like the outlier now. Landry produces, but he's not necessarily consistent. Last season he was all over the map. He book-ended four missed cuts and a T42 with a runner-up and a win. Landry looks like a winner and he should be a factor on the PGA Tour for years to come. As for this season, he's probably not a great salary cap selection because the lack of consistency. Couple that with an abundance of talent right in the same salary range and it makes it easier to pass on him.

46. Beau Hossler
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $2,750,000
2017-18 Earnings: $2,449,707

There were a couple rookies who played better than Hossler last season, but it's hard to expect anymore out of rookie than what Hossler did last season. Though he failed to find a win, he did finish runner-up twice and he posted five top-10s. Perhaps most impressive for a rookie, he made the cut in 24 of 28 starts. That's a percentage that even seasoned-vets would love. Hossler gets it done with the putter. He finished 4th on the Web.com Tour in his final season there and he finished 5th on the PGA Tour last season. He'll need to improve on other aspects of his game in order to improve upon what was a great rookie season, but the future certainly looks bright. Unfortunately, Hossler set the bar too high for salary cap purposes this season as it's too much to expect that he could get into the mid-$3 millions.

47. Rafa Cabrera Bello
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $2,700,000
2017-18 Earnings: $2,449,869

It feels like Cabrera Bello has been around for 20 years, always on the brink of greatness, yet never breaking through. In reality, he's actually only played full time on the PGA Tour for two seasons now. He's played very well during those two seasons, but he hasn't taken that next step yet. That next step would be either a PGA Tour win or better yet a major win, but something always seems to get in the way with Cabrera Bello. On the bright side, since joining the PGA Tour two years ago, he's played 19 and 20 events, which is better than the typical 15-16 events that most transplants play. He's also put up solid earnings numbers, posting $1.9 in his first season and $2.4 million last season. It's the $2.4 million that makes it hard to pull the trigger on him his year though as unless he finds a win somewhere on the schedule, it's unlikely that he'll significantly improve upon that number. Cabrera Bello has plenty of value in draft formats, but not in salary cap formats this season.

48. J.J. Spaun
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $2,700,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,978,906

Spaun had a very solid rookie season in 2017, earning over $1 million and finishing the season 91st on the FedEx points list. Spaun was even better in his second season on the PGA Tour as he posted a runner-up, two 3rd-place finishes and four total top-10s. Spaun also nearly cracked the $2 million mark in his second season. For anyone that took a chance on Spaun prior to last season, it surely paid off, but can he improve upon what was a very good season yet again this year? The answer lies in his putting. He's never been a great putter, but he's such a good ball striker that it often makes up for his lack of short game. There is so much room for improvement however that even a small improvement in his putting could result in huge gains. As such, Spaun is a very intriguing salary cap selection this season.

49. Patton Kizzire
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $2,500,000
2017-18 Earnings: $3,541,151

To say Kizzire got off to a good start last season would be an understatement. Kizzire picked-up his first PGA Tour win during the fall portion of the scheduled and he grabbed his second win of the season just a couple months later at the Sony Open in January. From there, a predictable drop in production befell Kizzire as he posted only one top-10 for the remainder of the season. Last season was just his third on the PGA Tour and considering he had yet to win in his first two seasons, it's understandable that he might let off the gas after picking up two wins within the span of a few months. Kizzire obviously set a career-high in earnings last season and as such, he's not a good salary cap option this season. Expect Kizzire to come back to Earth a bit this season, but not so much that he's fighting to stay in the top-125.

50. Pat Perez
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $2,500,000
2017-18 Earnings: $2,962,641

Perez played out of his mind during the 2016-2017 season. It was so out of character that in other sports, the only explanation would be HGH. It was entirely predictable that Perez would come back to Earth a bit last season after posting such insane numbers the year prior. The thing is, he didn't come back that far, he still had a really good season. In fact, it was his second best season on the PGA Tour. The problem again this season is, the bar is still too high entering this season. Perez has found something, something that he couldn't find for most of his first 15 years on the PGA Tour, but he missed his peak physical years and it's going to be difficult to keep up this pace. He'll likely have another solid season this year, but it would be a surprise to see him top his numbers from last season.

51. Kevin Chappell
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $2,500,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,608,338

Chappell joined the PGA Tour in 2012 and he's been solidly inside the top-125 ever since. In his first few years, Chappell showed some promise, but he never quite found his top gear. That changed in 2016 when he finished runner-up four times on his way to over $4.5 million in earnings. For an encore in 2017, he picked-up his firs victory on the PGA Tour and topped $3 million in earnings. Last year however, he fell back to his pre-2016 levels of production. The culprit last season was his short game. Chappell has never been a great putter, even during the 2016 and 2017 seasons, he wasn't lights-out with the putter, but he was good to really good everywhere else, including strokes-gained around the green. Last season not only was his putting bad, but he ranked 172nd in strokes-gained around the green. A small improvement in that area of his game would show great gains in his earnings this season. It's an issue that he should be able to address this off season.

52. Andrew Putnam
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $2,400,000
2017-18 Earnings: $2,387,382

Putnam's rookie season and his second season on the PGA Tour could not have been more different. Putnam's rookie season was a disaster. He missed more cuts than he made and earned only two top-25 all season. In total, he had less than $300k to show by the end of the season. His second season started like his first ended, with missed cuts and zero top-25s through his first five starts. He posted his first career top-25 at the Career Builder Challenge in January, but he didn't really get rolling until March. A top-5 at the Corales Puntacana Resort & Club Championship was the springboard for a nice run that would see him produce at a high- evel through the end of the season. The pinnacle was a win at the Barracuda Championship in August, but he also posted a runner-up at the FedEx St. Jude Classic. Good things appear to be in-store for Putnam, but there's not enough of a track record to spend this type of money on him in a salary cap format. In draft leagues he'll have plenty of value though and he'll likely fall further than he should because he's not well known right now.

53. Si Woo Kim
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $2,400,000
2017-18 Earnings: $2,276,114

Kim won just over $3 million in 2016 and it's been downhill ever since. Not like a ski hill, but more like a average driveway, with a slight decline. It's a very nice driveway however as though Kim's numbers have fallen in each of the past two seasons, he's managed to stay above the $2 million mark. He also won The PLAYERS Championship in 2017, which isn't too shabby. The issue with Kim has been consistency as he's shown a tendency to play well only a few times each season. As such, he's always going to be a high-risk player, especially in salary cap formats where the price tag is still over $2 million. On the positive side, he plays as much as anyone on the PGA Tour, so he's giving himself plenty of opportunities to find a hot streak.

54. Jimmy Walker
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $2,400,000
2017-18 Earnings: $2,027,312

After battling Lyme's disease for much of 2017, Walker's salary cap number made him an easy selection last year and for those who chose him, he came in at nearly a 100 percent return. Walker's 2017-2018 season, however, was unlike many of his previous ones though as there were several peaks and valleys and little in the way of consistency. Perhaps being a year removed from his illness will provide more consistency for the this season, but the problem is he earned more than $2 million last season, so to take him in a salary cap league, you'll need about $3 million. Walker turns 40 this season, and while he likely has a few good years left in him, a $3 million season may be too much to ask.

55. Adam Hadwin
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $2,300,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,932,488

Hadwin has four seasons on the PGA Tour under his belt and he's batting about .500. He's had two decent seasons and two above-average seasons. His two most recent seasons have been his best and there's reason to think he'll continue to improve. Hadwin picked-up his first and only win on the PGA Tour during the 2016-2017 season and it helped him surpass the $3 million mark. That price tag made him nearly impossible to select in a salary cap format, but with the drop in production last season, he's back in the range where it's feasible to take him. His ceiling has been established around $3 million, but he's only been there once, which makes it a risky play to take him at this price. He'll likely finish somewhere between where he finished last season and the season prior, which if that's the case, he won't be worth the price in salary cap leagues.

56. Peter Uihlein
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $2,250,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,797,715

Uihlein is the rare European who decided to play full time on the PGA Tour and actually succeeded – except he's not a European. Uihlein was a member of the European Tour prior to his first year on the PGA Tour, but he's American. It's actually an important distinction because it gives us a better idea of how many events he'll play. Most first-year players that come from the European Tour will split their time between tours and play somewhere around the minimum of 15 events, but Uihlein played 26 times last season. The number of events plays a huge part in projection his earnings for this season because as long as he keeps a similar schedule to last season, it's fair to expect a similar, if not better output that last season. With a full year on the PGA Tour under his belt, expect Uihlein to show a significant improvement this season.

57. Chesson Hadley
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $2,200,000
2017-18 Earnings: $2,768,863

Hadley got off to a nice start on the PGA Tour as a rookie in 2014 as he picked-up a victory in his first season and earned over $1.7 million by season's end. His Sophomore campaign wasn't quite as productive, but he managed to stay within the top-100 on the FedEx points list, but when the pressure was back on, in his third season, while playing for his card again, he fell flat, making under $600k for the season. He worked his way back onto the PGA Tour just two years later and had his best season yet. That season was the 2-17-2018 season where he posted a runner-up and 3rd-place finish and a total of seven top-10s. There's nothing negative to say about his performance last season, but he does have a track record of coming back to Earth after a solid season. With that in mind, he carries too much risk as a salary cap option this season.

58. Chez Reavie
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $2,200,000
2017-18 Earnings: $2,700,018

Reavie was absolutely on-fire early in the season last year and he parlayed that quick start into a career best earnings number. Reavie earned top-25s in seven of his first eight starts and he finished runner-up in consecutive early in February. At that point, Reavie had all but locked-up his career best season, and although he wouldn't reach those heights again, he did sprinkle-in a couple of strong outings. As for his prospects, Reavie has been wildly inconsistent throughout his career and although he's found some consistency over the past two seasons, he's still much to risky at this price.

59. Ryan Moore
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $2,200,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,986,608

Moore has spent the better part of the past decade at the top of the group of players just below the elite level. At times, Moore has been elite, but he's never been able to set up camp in that group. Moore has won five times on the PGA Tour and he's been consistently above $2 million in earnings for most of the past decade. At 35, there's no reason to think his game is going to leave him anytime soon, but after two consecutive sub-$2 million seasons, the question is -- can he get back to his pre-2017 form? Moore can certainly get back there, but with a price tag of nearly $2 million, getting back to his previous levels might not be enough. Moore has cracked the $3 million barrier just twice, and one of those times, he barely got across. In order to justify a salary cap selection this season, he'll need to get back to $3 million.

60. Russell Henley
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $2,200,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,516,438

Prior to last season, Henley had spent five full seasons on the PGA Tour and he'd picked-up wins in three of those five seasons. He also cracked the $2 million barrier in four of his first five season on the PGA Tour. Last season however, he did neither. The 2017-2018 season wasn't a complete failure, after all, he finished inside the top-100 on the FedEx points list, but it certainly wasn't a success. Henley definitely took a step back last season, but there's no reason to think he'll continue down that path. The upside is there and his floor should be just about where he finished last season. In other words, a good recipe for a salary cap pick.

61. Jason Dufner
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $2,100,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,497,655

Dufner has played been both great and just average over the past five years and as he approaches the age of 42, he's at a bit of a crossroads. He's only a year removed from a stellar season where he earned over $3 million, but at some point, age is going to catch up with him. Is that what happened last season? A look at Dufner's stats from last season reveal a drop in nearly every measurable category. Drop-offs due to age don't generally just hit a gut that quickly in this sport, which means last season was probably just a bad season. Dufner had wins in the two seasons prior to last season, and with a couple adjustments, he could get back there again this season.

62. Ian Poulter
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $2,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $2,714,450

Poulter is a great player when motivated as he's proved time and time again. Two seasons ago he was motivated to keep his playing privileges and it resulted in a $2 million season. Last season, he was motivated by the Ryder Cup at the end of the season and it resulted in a win and over $2.7 million in earnings. This season however, there's just nothing to keep his attention. There's no Ryder Cup at the end of the season and his card is secure for the next two seasons. Even with the lack of motivation, his number is simply too high for salary cap consideration this season.

63. Brendan Steele
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $2,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $2,291,128

Steele picked-up his second PGA Tour win in 2017 and earned nearly $3 million, which made it nearly impossible to draft him in salary cap formats. While his number predictably dropped off a little last season, he was able to find his third win on tour. Once again however, he's tough to select in salary cap formats because his price tag is above $2 million and he won last season. The win is relevant because in order to match his number from last season, he'd likely have to win again this season, and if order to significantly improve, he'd have to win and play well in several other spots. It's just too much to ask from Steele, whose never posted more than four top-10s in any one season.

64. Charles Howell III
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $2,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $2,179,725

Howell III joined the PGA Tour in 2001 and in that time, he's earned over $35 million on the course. He's really got the perfect gig. He makes millions for playing golf and he's rarely in a pressure-filled situation. He'll contend every now and then, but it's nothing to get worked-up about; Howell III has only three top-3s in the past five seasons. It's going to be strange when Howell III isn't around making cuts almost every week, but for now, there's no reason to think he's going away. There's also no reason to think anything is going to change this season. He'll once again be very productive this season, but a win is highly unlikely as is a significant improvement.

65. Zach Johnson
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $2,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,957,635

Are Johnson's best days on the golf course behind him? Probably. Does he have one last charge in him? Possibly. Johnson has had a fine career, often living inside the top 30 on the PGA Tour, but he hasn't won in the past three seasons and he hasn't played in the Tour Championship during that time either. He's still performing at a high- evel, averaging more than $2 million in earnings in each of the last three seasons, but he doesn't have that extra gear any longer. As recently as a few years ago, a $4 million season wasn't out of the question, but as we get further away from 2015, the last time he won on the PGA Tour, the less likely it is that we'll see that Zach Johnson again.

66. Matt Kuchar
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $2,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,720,097

Is this the beginning of the end for Matt Kuchar? That's probably a bit premature, but after going through his worst season in a decade, it's fair to wonder if he's on the back end of his career on the PGA Tour. Apart from the decline in his numbers, Kuchar didn't look the part last season either. It's a completely subjective take, but Kuchar looked like his age caught up with him all at once last season. He also seemed to run out of gas on several occasions, getting off to a hot start, only to falter on the weekend. In all, it was just not a good season for Kuchar. As for this season, his number was set much lower than the production that we've become accustomed to, which makes him a viable salary cap option this season, but there's no guarantee that he'll bounce back to his old ways.

67. Abraham Ancer
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $2,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,676,695

To say Ancer's career on the PGA Tour got off to a slow start, would be an understatement. Ancer missed the cut in his first nine starts in 2016 and although he went on to make the cut in six of his last 10 starts that season, he never found his footing. His second time around, however, went much better. Although he didn't miss his first nine cuts last season, he did get off to a bit of a slow start with only one top-25 in his first seven starts. Ancer, however, did more than find his footing over the final couple months of the season as he posted three top-10s in his final eight starts. Two of those were top-5s where he actually contended. Ancer held the 54-hole lead at the Dell Technologies Championship and although he faltered in the final round, it should end up being a quality learning experience. Ancer looks like the real deal and he should continue to improve, but how much he'll improve this season is the question. He's got some upside, but at this price, there's plenty of risk as well.

68. Joel Dahmen
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $2,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,476,838

Dahmen has a very productive first-season on the PGA Tour as he slid comfortably inside the top-125 last season. Dahmen got off to a slow start, but he really turned it on during the second-half of the season. Dahmen teed it up five times in the month of July and he finished inside the top-25 in each of those five events. He finished inside the top-10 in three of those events as well. He played well outside of that stretch in July as well, capturing four additional top-25s a few months prior. In all, Dahmen showed an amazing level of consistency for a rookie on the PGA Tour. The question will be if he can turn some of those top-25s into top-5s. As long as he keeps giving himself a chance, the odds are in his favor. As such, Dahmen makes for a solid salary cap option this season.

69. Kevin Tway
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $2,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,397,544

Tway finished 85th on the FedEx points list last season, which was down 13 spots from the previous season, but the two seasons were pretty similar. Tway's earnings were also very similar from year to year, finishing right about $1.4 million each season. There are any number of ways to get to a number like that, but Tway got there by grinding it out every week. Two seasons ago, Tway had two top-3s, but last season, he had no such luck. He did, however, tee it up 31 times and he made the cut in 24 starts. Most promising, however, was the way that Tway finished last season. Tway made the cut in 12 of his final 13 starts last season and finished inside the top 25 in half of those starts. He also carded three top-10s in that span. Tway appears to be on the way up and as such, makes for a solid salary cap selection this season.

70. Ollie Schniederjans
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $2,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,303,610

Schniederjans spent several years on the European Tour before joining the PGA Tour full time during the 2016-2017 season. He wasted no time in getting acclimated as he finished in the top 40 on the FedEx points list and nearly cracked $2 million in earnings. Schniederjans fell back a bit last season, but not so much that it should worry anyone for this season. While Scniederjans was solid off the tee during his first season on the PGA Tour, he lost his way last season and ended up 173rd on tour in strokes-gained off the tee. A solid short-game saved him from falling out of the top-125 however. Through two seasons, he's put up good stats both off the tee and around the green, just not in the same season. His floor should be around where he finished last season and if he puts his all of his game together, his ceiling is pretty high.

71. Cameron Champ - R
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,950,000
2017-18 Earnings: $11,966

The 23-year-old out of Texas A&M burst onto the scene in 2017 at the U.S. Open, when he finished the first two days in a tie for eighth before ultimately posting a T32 in his major championship debut. His 2018 Web.com Tour campaign was highlighted by a win at the Utah Championship top-25s in half of his 20 starts. Champ missed just four cuts while ranking sixth in birdie average, fourth in GIR percentage and first in driving distance. It wouldn't be a surprise to see him in the running for Rookie of the Year honors on the PGA Tour in 2019.

72. James Hahn
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,900,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,386,301

Hahn picked-up his first PGA Tour win in 2015 and followed that up with another victory in 2016. His numbers since that second win have declined each season however. The good news is, his price tag has fallen to a point where he has a lot of value in a salary cap league ... if he can find his form from a few years ago. Haan is pretty good in all phases of his game, but he's not great in any one area. That's fine if everything remains status quo, but if any part of his game drops off, like his putting last year, then his numbers are going to drop. The good news is, if Haan can simply get a little better on the green, while maintaining his ball-striking and short game, then he's due to bounce back.

73. Jhonattan Vegas
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,900,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,137,444

Vegas has three wins in his PGA Tour career and coincidently, he's had three good seasons on the PGA Tour. In other words, when Vegas wins, he winds up with good numbers at the end of the season. It seems like an obvious correlation, but there are plenty of guys on the PGA Tour that can put up good numbers even when they don't win. The good news is, even though he had an "off" season, his numbers were much better than in previous "off" seasons. In other words, his floor looks to be higher now than in year's past. His number is set pretty low entering this season, which makes Vegas a very intriguing salary cap option this year.

74. Sam Burns - W
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,900,000
2017-18 Earnings: $495,916

The LSU product was named a first-team All-American and recipient of the Jack Nicklaus Player of the Year award as the NCAA's top golfer during the 2016-17 season. He not only won on the Web.com Tour as a rookie in 2018, but also appeared in 11 PGA Tour events including a top-10 at the Honda Classic. Burns led the Web.com Tour in both birdie average and putting average, so he'll be a candidate to make some noise with a full schedule at the next level.

75. Ryan Armour
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,800,000
2017-18 Earnings: $2,485,203

Prior to last season, Armour had a per start average of $17,836. To put that in perspective, if he were to play 30 events per season, he'd make somewhere around $535k. Not bad for your average Joe, but not good enough to keep you PGA Tour card. Fortunately for Armour, he blew that average out of the water last season when he picked up his first PGA Tour win at Sanderson Farms Championship. That win came in fall 2017, but it sets him up for this season as well as the season after. Armour doesn't have to worry about keeping his card this season and salary cap owners don't have to worry about selecting him. Armour had no track record of success prior to his win last fall and as of now, that win is the outlier. Until that changes, there's no reason to consider him in salary cap leagues.

76. Whee Kim
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,800,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,920,340

Kim debuted in 2015 and after a slight setback in 2016, Kim has shown improvement in each of his past two seasons. His bump in earnings from year-two to year-three was about $500k, but his jump last season was nearly $800k. Kim's jump in earnings, for both seasons can be attributed to his runner-up finishes. He posted one runner-up in 2017 and two last season. The problem when looking at Kim's results however is that he's making just around 50% of his cuts. The high-end finishes are nice, but without consistency, his floor remains pretty low. As such, he's high-risk salary cap selection this season.

77. C.T. Pan
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,800,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,881,787

Pan fared well in his first season on the PGA Tour two years ago as he won over $1.2 million and finished inside the top-100 on the season-ending FedEx points list. He backed-up that effort with an even better second season where he earned over $1.8 million and finished in the top-70 on the FedEx points list. The big reason for the increased production was his number of top-10s, which jumped from four to 10 in his second season. Pan has struggled on the greens in his first two seasons and it his improvement from year-one to year-two was due to better ball striking. The problem is, he already improved his ball striking last season, so he'll have to further increase it this season or somehow figure out how to putt. Neither will be easy, which means he's not a great salary cap option this season.

78. Chris Kirk
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,800,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,824,111

Kirk played out of his mind in 2014 when he won twice on his way to nearly $5 million in earnings and although he's played a high- evel since then, he's never come close to his peak season of 2014. Entering last season, Kirk has shown declines in earnings in each of his three seasons post-2014. He bounced-back last season, showing a gain for the first time since 2014, but he set the bar at a height which will make it difficult to top this season. Kirk earned over $1.8 million last season and considering he's topped the $2 million mark just two times in eight seasons, it's not likely that he'll show a significant improvement this season.

79. Louis Oosthuizen
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,800,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,731,493

Since winning the Open Championship in 2010, Oosthuizen's numbers have been all over the place. He hit a major rut in the years that immediately followed his big win, but he seemed to find some traction over the past few seasons. After a three-year stretch where Oosthuizen earned at least $2.4 million each season, he took a bit of a step back last season. Oosthuizen's major problem last season was that he didn't get much done at the majors. He made the cut in all three majors he played, but he failed to post a top-10 at any of them. With his limited schedule, Oosthuizen's value is going to come down to how he fares at the majors. Considering it's getting more difficult every season to compete with these uber talented fields, Oosthuizen's value seems to be fading. As such, he doesn't hold a lot of value as a salary cap selection this season. He still holds plenty of value in other formats however.

80. Charl Schwartzel
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,800,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,710,179

When compare with the golfers around him on the FedEx points list, Schwartzel's earnings don't make a lot of sense. While most guys in the 100-125 range on the FedEx points list earned just over $1 million last season, Schwartzel made over $1.7 million. Schwartzel is a pretty steady player and he's just two seasons removed from a $2.9 million season, but his number is set just a bit too high for salary cap purposes. Another problem with Schwartzel is that he's pretty capped at 20 events per season. If he doesn't fare well at the majors, like last season, then it's going to be a lost season.

81. Keith Mitchell
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,800,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,641,260

Mitchell finished runner-up at the Corales Puntacana Resort & Club Championship and 3rd at the AT&T Byron Nelson, but he probably earned more air time for crashing the top-70 while playing at the Dell Technologies Championship in early September. Lost in all of that perhaps was that Mitchell was a rookie this season...who finished inside the top-70 on the FedEx points list. Not a bad start to one's career. In addition to the runner up and 3rd-place finish, he posted two additional top-10s throughout the season and made 21 of 29 cuts. Mitchell is just 26 and he could be an elite player someday, but the fact remains that there's a lot unknown about him at this stage. As such, the bar is simply set too high to take him in a salary cap league this season.

82. Anirban Lahiri
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,800,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,441,205

Lahiri broke through during the 2016-2017 season when he picked up a pair of top-3s on his way to nearly $2 million in earnings. It was just his second full season on the PGA Tour which meant we didn't have enough history to guess where he was going. While he didn't take his game to the next level last season, he didn't take a step backward either. The lower cap number leaves him in a spot where it's reasonable to take a chance on him this season. The odd thing about Lahiri is, his putting was much better last season than the season prior. If he's able to maintain that level of putting this season, he should be near his 2016-2017 numbers again this season.

83. Charley Hoffman
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,800,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,400,637

A very strange season for Hofmann as he failed to record a single top-10 all season. This after recording seven top-10s the year prior and over $4 million in earnings. Hoffman's $1.4 million in earnings was his lowest since 2012 and at the age of 41, it's reasonable to wonder if he's starting on a downward trend. Even if that is the case, that probably doesn't explain the precipitous drop-off last season though. Hoffman set the bar so far below his standard of the previous few seasons that even if he's in decline mode, he still could be a decent salary cap option this season...if he figured out where it went wrong last season.

84. Jamie Lovemark
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,800,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,377,286

Lovemark joined the PGA Tour in 2012 and things did not go well. He returned in 2014 and the results were not much better. It wasn't until 2016 that Lovemark turned a corner. During that season, Lovemark picked-up five top-10s on his way to nearly $2 million in earnings. He followed that season with another strong effort in 2017, when he again nearly earned $2 million. Last season however, Lovemark took a small step backward. It wasn't a terrible season, but he fell below $1.4 million in earnings, which for a guy on an upward trend, was a disappointment. That said, Lovemark's number from last season leaves plenty of room for improvement this year and as such, he makes for a solid salary cap selection. He'll need to play well early in the season to bolster his World Golf Ranking, in order to provide more value in other formats.

85. J.B. Holmes
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,750,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,595,942

Since joining the PGA Tour in 2012, Holmes has been one of the more consistent golfers on tour. He's had several peaks and very few valleys. He topped the $4 million mark in earnings just a few years ago, but he's been unable to reproduce the results of that season since. Holmes will turn 37 this season and while he should be years away from a decline, it's reasonable to wonder if he's topped-out. Holmes hasn't won on the PGA Tour in his past three seasons and he's failed to top $2 million in earnings in each of his past two seasons. The talent is there, but with plenty of talent all around him, it's not getting any easier to succeed on the PGA Tour. Holmes' best days on the golf course are probably behind him and as such, he's not a great salary cap option this season.

86. Russell Knox
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,750,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,424,030

Knox busted-out in a big way in 2016 when he picked-up two wins on the PGA Tour and nearly $5 million in earnings. He fell back to Earth the season after, but many expected a rebound last season; a rebound that never came. Since rejoining the PGA Tour in 2014, Knox has four seasons where he earned between $1.4 million and $1.9 million. The evidence is building that his 2016 season was a fluke and what we've seen in four of the past five seasons, is actually who he is. With that in mind, he's just a good, but not great salary cap option this season. He does have added value in the salary cap format however because of that one spectacular season and his enormous upside.

87. Sungjae Im - R
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,750,000
2017-18 Earnings: $33,281

The 20-year-old enjoyed success on the Japanese Tour in 2017 before leading the Web.com Tour's money list wire-to-wire this year, having won both the season-opening Bahamas Great Exuma Classic and WinCo Foods Portland Open. Im not only reached the top-100 in the Official World Golf Ranking, but he also qualified for a pair of majors, missing the cut at the U.S. Open before placing T42 at the PGA Championship. The young Korean ranked fifth on the Web.com Tour in birdie average and 19th in GIR percentage.

88. Jason Kokrak
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,700,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,794,431

That's not a misprint. Kokrak nearly cracked the top-50 on the FedEx points list last season. He did so without a win or a runner-up finish, so how did he do it? Though Kokrak has only one top-3, he did have 11 top-25s. That's exactly how you fly under the radar to a 52nd-place finished on the FedEx points list. That's been Kokrak's m.o. since day one however as he's posted only four top-3s in his seven years on the PGA Tour, but he makes a ton of cuts and usually ends up with several top-25s. Kokrak has average over eight top-25s per season over his past five seasons, which means his floor is relatively high, but his ceiling is relatively low.

89. Branden Grace
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,700,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,529,289

In 2016, Grace picked-up a win at the RBC Heritage, and top-5s at the U.S. Open and the PGA Championship. As a European Tour regular, who played just around the minimum number of events on the PGA Tour to stay eligible, it was about the best anyone could have hoped for out of him. In the two years since, Grace has not won, nor has he finished in the top-5 at a major, which is why his earnings have dropped each season. Grace is a fine golfer, who has the World Golf Ranking that allows him access to the biggest events, but unless he's going to win or contend at a major, his upside will be limited. As such, his value as a salary cap option is not nearly as high as his value in other formats.

90. Anders Albertson - R
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,600,000
2017-18 Earnings: NA

Albertson missed just three cuts in 22 starts on the Web.com Tour in 2018, adding a win at the Lincoln Land Championship as one of his 14 top-25 finishes. He ranked top-three in both birdie and putting average, while also finishing top-20 in GIR percentage. Albertson lacks PGA Tour experience with just one career start, however, posting a MDF at the 2016 RSM Classic.

91. Ted Potter, Jr.
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,600,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,976,198

For four days in February, Potter Jr. was the best golfer on the planet. No, he wasn't ranked No. 1 in the world, and, no, he wasn't atop the FedEx points list, but he stared down Dustin Johnson, at Pebble Beach and said, "not today my friend." Well, those might not have been his exact words, but he did kick the daylights out of everyone in the field that week. Potter Jr. proved he could play with anyone, when his game was right, but unfortunately, his game wasn't right too often after that week in February. His season was indicative of his career to this point. He's had severe highs and lows. He won as a rookie in 2012, but lost his card just two years later. This is Potter Jr., you never know what you are going to get. As such, he's obviously not a great salary cap candidate as there's just no consistency what so ever.

92. Scott Piercy
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,600,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,882,337

Last season was Piercy's 10th full season on the PGA Tour and in that time, he's been a very productive golfer. He's posted four wins, three runner-ups and five third-place finishes. His earnings peaked in 2016 when he nearly cracked $3 million. That season came after a 2015 when he earned more than $2.7 million. Entering the 2016-17 season, Piercy appeared to be trending upward, but he took a step back that season, falling to little more than $1.3 million. He made a bit of a comeback last season when he earned more than $1.8 million, but 2017-18 wasn't quite as good as it appears upon first glance. Piercy did claim his fourth win on the PGA Tour last season, but it came at the Zurich Classic, which is a team event. When on his own, Piercy managed just one top-10 all season. In that sense, you could say that a downward trend continued through last season. Even if you give him full credit for his Zurich Classic win, he still doesn't appear to have much value as a salary cap selection this season.

93. Danny Lee
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,600,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,269,386

Lee is a bit of a unicorn on the PGA Tour. Sure, there are plenty of guys that are streaky, but Lee takes his streaks to a whole different level. For Lee, it's just a matter of what he accomplishes while he's hot. In 2015, he turned his hot streaks into a win, a runner-up and two 3rd-place finishes on his way to nearly $4 million in earnings. Since then, he hasn't been able to accomplish nearly as much, but he's found a way to remain productive. Lee still has a lot of upside and even though he's ultra-streaky, his floor is still relatively high. He'll aggravate you more often than not, but when he gets hot, he's fun to watch.

94. Bill Haas - E
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,600,000
2017-18 Earnings: $638,414

Haas finished 152nd in points, though surely would've been inside the top-150 and maybe even the top-125 had he not been involved in a car accident while in Los Angeles to play the Genesis Open in February. He missed a month afterward, but still may be carrying the emotional trauma of a friend dying in the accident. Haas played in 25 events, made 14 cuts, had three top-25s and one top-10 – at the RBC Heritage about two months after the accident. He was also 14th at Colonial in May. Haas has not won since 2015 and will never regain the heights he had when winning the 2011 FedEx Cup playoffs. But as a barometer, he almost certainly will be drafted in the RotoWire auction, which goes 126 golfers deep.

95. Brian Gay
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,500,000
2017-18 Earnings: $2,152,501

Gay earned over $3 million in 2009 and it only took him eight seasons to top the $2 million mark again. The years in-between those two season were not kind to Gay as he often fell below the $1 million mark. Gay's 2017-2018 season was great, all things considered, and there's no reason to try an disparage what he accomplished. Still, the odds are very slim that he can repeat what he did last year, this season and even if he does, it doesn't justify a salary cap selection. Gay has been a pretty decent golfer on the PGA Tour for a long time, but he'll turn 47 this season and guys don't get better as they approach age 50.

96. Stewart Cink
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,500,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,887,208

If Cink were say, 25 instead of 45, his last two seasons would indicate he's about ready for a breakout season, but he's not 25 and the fact of the matter is, his upside is extremely limited entering this season. Cink's game began to fall off after winning the Open Championship in 2009 and he only started to regain his prior form two seasons ago. To the surprise of many, Cink actually improved upon that season last year, but looking at his prospects for this season, he may have set the bar too high. Cink posted a runner-up finish and two additional top-5s last season, something he'll be hard pressed to duplicate this season.

97. Kevin Streelman
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,500,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,523,642

Streelman has been a good to very good player since he joined the PGA Tour in 2008, but outside of a two-year span a handful of years ago, he's never been able to find that extra gear. Streelman picked-up his first PGA Tour win in 2013 and he captured his second a year later. Since then however, he's finished no better than 61st on the FedEx points list. Streelman will turn 40 this season and his window to become elite has passed him by. He'll likely remain a productive golfer for the next few seasons, but his upside, especially at this price, is all but gone.

98. Kelly Kraft
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,500,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,496,253

Kraft has been the model of consistency over the past two seasons, Consistency from season to season that is. His past two seasons have been nearly identical and each has resulted in full playing privileges the following season. That's about where Kraft is right now however. He has a runner-up and a 3rd-place finish in each of the past two seasons, but he hasn't threatened to crack the top-30 on the PGA Tour. Conversely, he hasn't had to sweat out the top-125 either. He plays a lot, but doesn't make a high percentage of cuts. When he does make the cut however, there's a decent chance that he's going to make a run. At 29 years of age, with three years on the PGA Tour under his belt, he should be nearing his peak. The problem is, the peak doesn't look awfully high at the moment. Kraft will likely end the 2018-2019 season in a similar position to his previous two seasons.

99. Ryan Palmer
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,500,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,484,445

After underperforming during the 2016-2017 season and earning just $770k, Palmer looked like a great salary cap option entering last season. Palmer didn't disappoint as he nearly double his previous year's earnings last season. It was likely the last time an opportunity like that will arise for Palmer as he'll turn 42 this season and his best golf is in the rear view mirror. Palmer topped the $2 million mark in 2014, but that was the only time he's done so in his career. Palmer simply doesn't have enough in the tank to improve upon what was a pretty good season last year. As such, he's not a good salary cap option this season.

100. Nick Watney
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,500,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,402,833

Watney had a five-year stretch on the PGA Tour when he was consistently a candidate to make the Tour Championship each season, but that run ended in 2013. Since then, he's had a couple solid seasons, but nothing approaching his peak years. Last season was actually one of his better efforts from the past five seasons, but it left little room for improvement from a salary cap perspective. There's a notion that Watney's been pretty bad over the past five seasons, but that's not the case, he's simply just not as good as he once was. With that in mind, there's no reason to think he'll find his form from a nearly a decade ago and as such, he doesn't have enough upside to justify a salary cap selection this season.

101. Michael Kim
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,500,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,379,736

Kim can certainly putt, there's no doubt about that, but it's the other parts of his game that leave a lot of questions unanswered. Statistically, last season was Kim's worst on the PGA Tour, but he managed to put everything together for four days in July and ended up with a win at the John Deere Classic. Outside of that win, the season was a disaster. The strange this is, the season prior, was the nothing like last season as Kim showed a lot of consistency throughout. One reason was his ball striking, which was much better two seasons ago than it was last season. For whatever reason, Kim went off the rails early last season and didn't recover until his win at the John Deere Classic. He's not that far away from putting it all together, but his performance post-victory last season is a little troubling. It all adds up to a guy who needs a little more time to get everything figured out, which he probably will, but not this season.

102. Grayson Murray
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,500,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,056,628

Murray picked up a win during his rookie season of 2017 and while he failed to post another victory in his sophomore season, he managed to stay afloat. He didn't win last season, but his percentage of cuts made went from 60 to 75 percent. He also matched his total top-10s and top-25s from the previous season. Murray could have easily taken a huge step back last season as his card was secure for this season no matter how he finished, but he managed to play fairly well. Throw in a two-month stint on the DL with a shoulder injury and his numbers look even better. As long as his shoulder heals, Murray should continue to improve in his third season on the PGA Tour.

103. Patrick Rodgers
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,400,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,287,040

In his rookie season if 2013, Rodgers earned over $1 million in just 17 events. While he's improved upon that earnings number in each of his past three seasons, that's only due to his beefed-up schedule. Rodgers has averaged over 28 events during the past three seasons, but his earnings have gone up roughly $300k per season. Simple match would put that average per tourney around $30k and that's just not good enough. Rodgers has every right to improve and at just 26 years of age, he probably will get better, but to expect a significant jump this season is too much.

104. Trey Mullinax
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,400,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,148,245

Mullinax fell short of securing his PGA Tour card during his rookie season of 2016-2017, but he took advantage of his partial-exempt status and nearly cracked the top-100 on the FedEx points list last season. Mullinax earned over $400k more in his second season than he did in his first season and that can be traced to a runner-up finish at the Valero Texas Open. In addition to posting his first runner-up on the PGA Tour, Mullinax also scored two more top-10s than his previous season and he upped his made-cuts percentage. In other words, everything is trending in the right direction entering this season. As such, Harkins makes for an interesting salary cap selection this season.

105. Brice Garnett
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,300,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,466,224

Garnett struggled in his first stint on the PGA Tour, twice failing to stay within the top-125 by season's end, but he found some footing last season, thanks in large part to a win at the Corales Puntacana Resort & Club Championship. That win however saved what was an otherwise subpar season. Garnett posted only two top-10s in 30 starts last season and he missed 10 cuts. Garnett will turn 36 this season and while that's not normally an age where one's skills would regress, it is odd that it took this long for Garnett to find his game. With that in mind, he's not a good salary cap option this season.

106. Troy Merritt
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,300,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,326,989

Merritt has been all over the map in his seven years on the PGA Tour. The high point came in 2015, when he picked-up his first win and topped $2 million in earnings. The low was a couple years prior when he failed to make even $200k. Last season, Merritt picked-up his second win on the PGA Tour and again made it into seven-figure territory. Outside of the years where he's won, Merritt hasn't produced much however and his win came at the Barbasol Championship, which is held opposite of the British Open. Merritt has enough upside to justify a salary cap pick at this price, but he hasn't proven consistent enough in his time on the PGA Tour.

107. Harold Varner III
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,300,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,223,064

Varner III is a consistently decent golfer. In his three years on the PGA Tour, he's done nothing spectacular, yet he's managed to keep his card each season. He could spend the next 20 years playing like he has over the past three years and he'd make a lot of money, but once you've established yourself on the PGA Tour, you obviously want more. Does Varner III have another gear though? In three seasons on the PGA Tour, he has exactly zero top-3s. Not once has he played above his current level for a four-day span and threatened to win a PGA Tour event. That's a little troubling, especially in a salary cap format because that format is all about upside. As such, Varner III makes a much better draft-league option than a salary cap option this season.

108. Sean O'Hair
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,300,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,104,865

O'Hair has four wins on the PGA Tour, but his last win came during the 2011 season. His blueprint for success since then has been simple. Pick up a runner-up somewhere, sprinkle-in a handful of top-10s and voila, a million-plus in your pocket and a PGA Tour card. O'Hair appeared destined for greatness early in his career, but that extra gear, which helped him win four times on the PGA Tour appears out of reach now. That said, O'Hair played in only 22 events last season, down from an average of 26 in his previous three seasons and it would make sense that if he were to play a bit more this season, his numbers would increase. He's about as reliable as they come, but his upside is limited. Expect slightly better numbers this season, but nothing significant.

109. Brandon Harkins
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,250,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,148,115

It took Harkins just one year on the Web.com Tour to earn his PGA Tour card and as a rookie on the PGA Tour last season, he once again secured his card for the following season. The feat itself is quite impressive, the problem is, Harkins hasn't really shown much of an upside. He earned his card by making cuts, earnings several top-25s and sprinkling-in a few top-10s. Harkins made the cut in two-thirds of his starts last season and he turned that into eight top-25s. His best finish however was just a T8 at the Career Builder Challenge. Harkins may be new to the professional golfing world, but he's no youngster, well, relatively. Harkins is 32 years-old, which means he should be peaking about now and if that's the case, this might be the best he's got.

110. Dylan Frittelli - F
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,250,000
2017-18 Earnings: $331,177

Despite being a PGA Tour non-member throughout the 2017-18 season, Frittelli notched a pair of top-25s in 11 starts en route to six made cuts. The 28-year-old South African resides in the top-70 of the Official World Golf Ranking thanks to two wins on the European Tour in 2017, so he'll be someone to keep an eye on in 2019 if he ramps up his activity level on the PGA Tour. Frittelli earned his card via the Web.com Tour Finals, which included finishes of T9-T17 at the Albertsons Boise Open and Nationwide Children's Hospitals Championship.

111. Scott Langley - W
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,200,000
2017-18 Earnings: NA

Langley will return to full status on the PGA Tour for the first time since his 2015-16 campaign, when he missed 12 cuts in 22 starts and finished just 167th in the FedExCup standings. The 29-year-old bounced back on the Web.com Tour in 2018 with a win at the Panama Championship to go along with five total top-10s. He made 15 of 21 cuts and ranked top-10 in both GIR and FIR percentage.

112. Alex Prugh - W
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,200,000
2017-18 Earnings: NA

Prugh averaged nearly 23 starts per season on the PGA Tour in five campaigns ranging from 2010 to 2016, but he posted just one top-three in 113 career events. At the Web.com Tour level in 2018, the 34-year-old rattled off five top-10s and 11 top-25s to finish 18th on the regular season money list. Despite reaching his mid-30s, Prugh averaged nearly 315 yards off the tee and ranked top-10 in both birdie average and GIR percentage.

113. Tom Hoge
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,200,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,358,542

Hoge's first three seasons on the PGA Tour were a complete grind. He failed to crack the top-125 in any of those three seasons and he topped-out at $690k in earnings in 2015. The two seasons following his rookie season of 2015 saw a decline in his overall numbers, but last season he bounced-back and set a career-high in earnings. That career-high in earnings was due in large part to a solo-third at the Sony Open in January. The problem is, that 3rd-place finish was his only top-10 last season. Hoge has every right to improve again this season, but you don't want to bet on a guy who might get better. With a floor well below his price tag and a ceiling that doesn't look much higher than $1 million, Hoge is not a good salary cap option this season.

114. Sung Kang
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,200,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,243,309

Kang's 2017-2018 season was made by a pair of 3rd-place finishes. Once at the beginning of the season that went unnoticed and another towards the end of the season that caught a few eyes. The 3rd-place finish near the end of the season, came in July at the Quicken Loans National. During said event, Kang gave himself a rather generous drop in the final round that undoubtedly helped him finish where he did. While the drop paid immediate dividends, it most likely had a negative impact during the events that followed as he had to deal with the added attention of being labeled a cheater. Lost in all of the drama was that Kang was in the midst of a pretty bad season prior to that 3rd-place finish and this on the heels of a strong 2016-2017 campaign. Kang has the upside to improve significantly this season, but it's a question of whether he can put the drama behind him and just play golf. The risk is probably a bit too high though as a salary cap selection this season.

115. Scott Stallings
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,200,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,147,573

Stallings is one of the more anonymous three-time winners on the PGA Tour as most who follow this sport couldn't pick him out of lineup. It surely doesn't help that he's been pretty much irrelevant on the PGA Tour for the past four seasons. It is truly an odd case as Stallings played at a high- evel for much of his first four seasons on the PGA Tour, but it's been the opposite in his past four seasons. He did pick up his play a bit last season however, topping the $1 million mark for the first time since 2013, but there's just not enough there to think he's going to see a big bump in production this season.

116. Richy Werenski
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,200,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,081,283

Werenski did just enough to keep his card during his rookie season two years ago and he did just a little bit more than that last season. His two seasons on the PGA Tour have been remarkably similar in that he posted a runner-up finish in each and six top-25s. He missed more cuts in his second season than his first, but he did play in six more events. Werenski made just one more cut last year than the year prior, yet he earned almost $200k more. While most of his stats were similar across his two season, he did make a huge improvement in his short game. Werenski gained nearly 100 spot in strokes-gained around the green last season. It's a good sign that he was able to improve in one area and not regress in another. If Werenski can continue that trend, he'll see improvement in his overall numbers again this season. While he'll likely improve again this season, it might not be enough of a jump to justify a salary cap selection this season.

117. Sam Ryder
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,200,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,046,166

It's amazing what one high-end finish can do for a guy on the PGA Tour. In Ryder's case, his high-end finish came in the form of a runner-up at the John Deere Classic. He also carded a top-5 at the Houston Open, but behind those two starts, it was mostly a struggle for Ryder. Ryder started 26 times last season and managed only three top-25s. As for the positives, Ryder played fairly well down the stretch, especially when compared to the first-half of his season. Ryder will be a guy to keep an eye on in the fall. If he plays well, he'll make for a good salary cap option for those starting in January. For those starting this fall, he's a coin flip and probably carries a little too much risk at this point.

118. Ryan Blaum
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,200,000
2017-18 Earnings: $980,877

Blaum had a steady, but not spectacular rookie season in 2017 and he followed that up with a solid, but not spectacular sophomore season. Most impressive from his rookie season was the 22 cuts made in 29 starts. He wasn't as consistent last season, with just 14 made cuts in 26 starts, but he posted eight top-25s, which was two more than his rookie season. While consistency is nice, it's not necessary to be successful on the PGA Tour. If last season was the start of a trend and he's trading consistency for higher upside, then Blaum could be a solid salary cap selection this season.

119. J.T. Poston
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,200,000
2017-18 Earnings: $940,661

Poston failed to sneak into the top-125 during his rookie season, but he turned his partial privileges into full privileges in 2017-18 when he finished 117th on the FedEx points list. Poston accomplished in 22 events last season, what he failed to do in the season prior, which could indicate a significant improvement. Not surprisingly, Poston's improved earnings number was a result of better putting. Poston gained improved from 127th in strokes gained: on-the-green in 2017 to 77th last season. While it's a dramatic improvement, his final ranking of 77th is certainly repeatable. Considering the small investment, Poston might be worth a look in salary cap leagues this season.

120. Bronson Burgoon
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,100,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,179,616

Burgoon just missed the top 125 during his rookie season two years ago, but he parlayed his limited playing status into full privileges for this season. A top-10 at the Quicken Loans National and a runner-up at the John Deere are to thank for Burgoon's spot in the top 125, but outside of those two finishes, he didn't get much done. In fact, Burgoon missed more cuts than he made last season, something that isn't often said about guys who finish inside the top 100 on the FedEx points list. On the bright side, Burgoon has shown the ability to finish inside the top-25, but without more consistency, he's just not a good salary cap option.

121. Scott Brown
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,100,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,076,678

Brown picked up a win in his second season on the PGA Tour, which propelled him over $1 million for the first time in his career. In the five seasons since, Brown has topped $1 million in each season. He peaked in 2017 when he posted two runner-up finishes on his way to more than $1.7 million. Brown is nothing if not consistent, but after six seasons on the PGA Tour, it's clear that he doesn't have a ton of upside. Brown makes for a solid late-round draft selection, but he's not a good salary cap option for this season.

122. Wyndham Clark - R
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,050,000
2017-18 Earnings: $68,800

Clark appeared in three PGA Tour events during the 2017-18 season, notably finishing 17th at the Sanderson Farms Championship before missing cuts at the OHL Classic and Waste Management Phoenix Open. On the Web.com Tour in 2018, he collected to top-three finishes and four top-10s, but missed 11 cuts in 23 starts. Clark struggled with his accuracy off the tee, but made up for it with distance as he ultimately finished top-30 in birdie average.

123. Satoshi Kodaira
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,471,462

Prior to last season, Kodaira had just nine starts on the PGA Tour. He made the cut in seven of those nine starts, but he failed to crack the top-25 in any start. That changed when he shocked the golfing world and won the RBC Heritage in April. That win changed his life as he was now exempt for two years on the PGA Tour. After his win, Kodaira failed to accomplish anything for the remainder of the season. Perhaps it was a let down after securing his card for the next two seasons or perhaps he played out of his mind for four days in April. Whatever the case, he'll have a lot of work to do this season just to get to his number from last season and since there is no history other than last season, he carries far too much risk entering this season.

124. Alex Cejka
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,198,541

Cejka has played on and off on the PGA Tour since 1996 and surprisingly, three of his best seasons during that span have come in the past four years. Cejka picked-up his first PGA Tour win in 2015 and he's played pretty well ever since. The credit can go to his short game, specifically around the greens, where he ranked 4th last season in strokes-gained around the green on the PGA Tour. He is 47 however and that short game can only keep him relevant for so long. A regression is coming and coming soon.

125. Rory Sabbatini
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,126,057

Last season was Sabbatini's 20th on the PGA Tour and although he's had some low points over the years, for the most part, he's been a pretty productive golfer. Not so much in recent seasons, but even though he's well past his prime, Sabbatini has lost his card just once since his rookie season of 1999. Sabbatini once lived above the $2 million mark, but he hasn't been there since 2011. While he has $1.5 million upside in him, at 42, that's about the best he can hope for now. As such, there's just not enough upside to justify a salary cap selection this season.

126. Brian Stuard
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,089,763

Stuart has been on the PGA Tour for seven years and he's started 196 events. He's made the cut in roughly 56% of those events and he's earned a total of 14 top-10s. That's and average of just two top-10s per season. He does have a win on his resume, but only two other top-3s to show. Stuard has managed to stay inside the top-125 more often than not through his career, but he's done little else. He'll likely end up being a guy who grinds it out each season and he'll sometimes retain his card and sometimes not. He's not a salary cap target and holds just a small amount of value in other formats.

127. Martin Laird
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $1,017,580

It might come as a surprise to learn that Laird is a three-time winner on the PGA Tour. This problem is, his last win came in 2013. That win came near the end of a very nice run on the PGA Tour, which saw Laird top the $2 million mark in three of four seasons. In the years since that run, Laird has spent most of his time right around the $1 million mark. That's exactly where he ended last season, which obviously makes him a poor salary cap selection this season.

128. Sam Saunders
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $981,936

Saunders' fourth on the PGA Tour in 2017-18 and continues to show improvement. He earned just less than $600k in his rookie season of 2015 and while he took a step back in 2016, he got back on track the following season when he earned nearly $700k. He posted a career-high last season when he nearly topped $1 million. While he's definitely getting better, his progress is slow, which makes it appear as though there's not a ton of upside there. As such, Saunders isn't a great salary cap option this season.

129. John Huh
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $974,538

There was no adjustment period for Huh during his rookie season as he hit the ground running from the get go. During his rookie season, Huh picked-up his first win and topped the $2 million mark with ease. He followed that up with another solid season in 2013, where he earned just over $1.5 million. Since then however, Huh has struggled to find his rookie form. Though he's managed to keep his PGA Tour card during each of the past five seasons, his best finish on the FedEx points list has been 97th. There's no logical reason for a regression like this, but it is what it is. Huh just simply hasn't shown any upside since 2013. As such, he's not a good option in salary cap leagues this season.

130. Tyler Duncan
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $944,021

A tale of two seasons for Duncan last season as he spent the majority of the first half of the season slamming the trunk on Friday, while the second half of the season he was grinding it out on the weekend. While Duncan made plenty of cuts during the second half of the season, he wasn't getting much done on the weekend. His only top-10 during that span came at the Zurich Classic, which is, of course, a team event. Duncan's only solo top-10 came in his first start of the season in fall. In all, it wasn't a terribly impressive rookie season for Duncan. He did accomplish goal No. 1, which is to earn your card for the following season, but he didn't accomplish much beyond that. It doesn't look like Duncan is on the fast track to success, and as such, it might be a while before he makes his mark.

131. William McGirt
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $933,327

2016 was a banner year for McGirt as he picked up his first win on the PGA Tour and smashed the $3 million barrier. While is was an impressive season, his other seven seasons on the PGA Tour has not resembled it in any way. Since a rough rookie season in 2012, McGirt has managed to play at a high enough level to retain his playing privileges every season, but outside his 2016 season, he's failed to earn more than $1.3 million. The $3.6 million season was obviously a fluke, which puts his upside right around $1.3 million. With that in mind, McGirt is not a good option in salary cap leagues this season.

132. Robert Streb - F
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $1,000,000
2017-18 Earnings: $411,606

The 31-year-old had made over $1 million in each of the past four seasons, but struggled in posting just one top-10 finish in 2017-18 for a measly $411,606 in earnings. After qualifying for full status again via the Web.com Tour Finals, expect Streb to show more consistency in the 2018-19 season and return to a $1 million dollar man.

133. Bud Cauley
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $950,000
2017-18 Earnings: $900,591

Cauley is among the group of "young guns" that hasn't quite hit their stride yet. Coincidently, another member of that group, Harris English, finished right behind Cauley on the FedEx points list last season. There's no doubt that both guys would rather be more accomplished at this point in their careers, but there's a lot of competition out there and there's no room to let up. Cauley has flashed a few times in PGA Tour career, most notably in 2012 when he posted six top-10s, but he's yet to win or even finish runner-up on the PGA Tour. The potential is there, but there are plenty of guys with potential on the PGA Tour and many of them actually live up to it. Cauley has enough upside to double his number from last season, but odds are, he'll be fighting to stay inside the top-125 again a year from now.

134. Harris English
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $950,000
2017-18 Earnings: $799,450

Justin Thomas, Jordan Spieth, Rickie Fowler, Harris English? Believe it or not, a few years ago, English was among a group of young elite golfers on the PGA Tour that were destined for greatness. While many from that group have taken their games to the next level, English has actually regressed in recent years. English peaked in 2014 when he earned almost $3 million, but his numbers have fallen off since then. The past two years have seen a dramatic drop-off from his peak of 2014 as he's failed to even crack the $1 million mark. English now has four solid seasons under his belt and two less than stellar seasons. The problem is, those two subpar seasons are his two most recent. While English has a higher ceiling than most golfers who finish around 125th on the FedEx list, there aren't any indications that he's about to find his old form again. As such, English is a just a decent salary cap option this season.

135. Josh Teater - W
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $950,000
2017-18 Earnings: $40,040

Teater is slated to turn the big 4-0 in April, but the aging golfer has earned a full schedule on the PGA Tour for the first time since 2014 when he posted zero top-10s in 28 starts. In 2017-18 on the Web.com Tour he finished 15th on the regular-season money list with two runner-ups and eight top-25s. Despite ranking fifth in GIR percentage, Teater fell to 70th in birdie average due to struggles with the putter.

136. Carlos Ortiz - W
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $925,000
2017-18 Earnings: $20,789

Ortiz made 59 starts in two seasons on the PGA Tour before losing his card in 2016, making 30 cuts en route to 10 top-25s. He's spent the past two years on the Web.com Tour, however, making 36 out of 47 cuts in the process. In 2018 he finished second at the Bahamas Great Exuma Classic and would go on to record 11 top-25s. Ortiz also ranked top-25 in both ball striking and birdie average.

137. Kramer Hickok - R
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $900,000
2017-18 Earnings: NA

Hickok won the Web.com Tour's DAP Championship in early September during the Finals after finishing 23rd on the regular season money list, having also notched two top-three results and nine top-25s. With four career starts to his name on the PGA Tour, Hickok impressively finished top-20 at the 2017 RBC Canadian Open. He also won two events on the Canadian Tour that same year, so he's ascended to top-150 status in the Official World Golf Ranking.

138. Chad Campbell - C
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $900,000
2017-18 Earnings: $801,960

The veteran Campbell fell below $1 million for the first time since 2014 last season, notching just two top-10s. He did manage a runner-up, but that was at the opposite fielded Barracuda Championship, worth a meager $367,200 compared to other PGA Tour events. The Texan has been a mainstay on tour the last 17 seasons, but now faces conditional status given his FedExCup standing of 129 this season as he just missed an automatic card. Expect Campbell to make the most of his opportunities in 2018-19 and make a much higher percentage of cuts than last year, bumping his prospects.

139. Corey Conners - C
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $900,000
2017-18 Earnings: $728,296

In his first full season on the PGA Tour, Conners managed a singular top-10 finish at Colonial on the strength of a career low 63 in the third round. There's definitely some upside for Conners as he also contended at the Valspar Championship and Corales Puntacana Championship, but sputtered to final rounds of 77 and 76 respectively to drop down the leaderboard. Though he earned $728,296 this past year, his solid ballstriking numbers and 20-of-28 made cuts give hope that the youngster will be a mainstay on the PGA Tour for many years ahead.

140. Robert Garrigus - C
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $900,000
2017-18 Earnings: $702,030

The long-hitting Garrigus has had full PGA Tour status since 2007 but in 2017-18 notched just one top-10 finish at the Farmers Insurance Open and fell outside the top 125 in FedExCup points. His putting has always been below average, but he also saw a decline in his overall strokes gained: tee-to-green numbers, which ultimately was the root cause for not automatically retaining his card. Given his history of good play, expect Garrigus to play solidly in his opportunities in 2018-19 and return to posting a minimum of $800,000 in earnings.

141. Ben Martin - C
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $900,000
2017-18 Earnings: $532,936

In six full seasons on the PGA Tour, Martin has notched less than two top-10s in only two of them. Unfortunately for him, last season was one of them, ultimately keeping him outside the top 125 in FedExCup points and barely into conditional status at number 150. The South Carolina native is an accurate hitter and good putter, but he'll need to perform next season if he wants to maintain his status next year. Expect a rebound for Martin despite the added pressure he'll have to perform in limited opportunities. He's a fringe option for salary cap leagues but off the radar in draft leagues.

142. Jim Knous - R
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $875,000
2017-18 Earnings: $24,480

Knous will be a 28-year-old rookie on the PGA Tour after earning his card by finishing top-25 in the Web.com Tour Finals, where he brought his total amount of top-25s on the season to eight. He also made the cut during his lone start at the PGA Tour level during the 2017-18 campaign, posting a T41 at the Shriners Hospitals for Children Open. Knous was fourth in the all-around ranking on the Web.com Tour in 2018, so he could be a deep sleeper candidate.

143. Nick Taylor
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $850,000
2017-18 Earnings: $899,373

Last season was Taylor's fourth on the PGA Tour and it was much like his previous three as far as his standing on the FedEx points list. Taylor actually picked up a win in his rookie season of 2015, but even with that win, he barely managed to top $1 million. Since then, he's topped $1 million just once in three seasons. Last season was fairly uneventful as Taylor managed just two top-10s all season. He picked up a top-10 in his first start in the fall and another top-10 in the final event prior to the FedEx playoffs. That top-10 was huge for Taylor, however, as it locked up his card for this season. Although he has that card, Taylor hasn't shown enough in his four years on the PGA Tour to justify a salary cap selection this season.

144. Sebastian Munoz - W
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $850,000
2017-18 Earnings: $17,675

Munoz finished just outside of the top-150 in the FedExCup standings during the 2016-17 season, when he posted a T3 at The Greenbrier but also missed nine cuts in 17 starts. He appeared in 22 events on the Web.com Tour in 2018, notching a pair of runner-up finishes and a third-place result to ultimately come in seventh on the regular season money list. The Colombian ranked 33rd in ball striking, 24th in putting average and 14th in birdie average.

145. Roberto Castro - W
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $840,000
2017-18 Earnings: $0

The 33-year-old played six consecutive seasons on the PGA Tour before losing his card at the end of 2017, having missed the cut in 15 of 25 starts as he fell to 172nd in the FedExCup standings. Castro rebounded with seven top-25s and five top-10s in just 14 starts on the Web.com Tour in 2018, while he ranked fifth in putting average and seventh in GIR percentage.

146. Adam Long - R
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $825,000
2017-18 Earnings: NA

Long's five top-10s and 12 top-25s put him comfortably inside of the top-25 on the Web.com Tour's regular season money list in 2018. The 30-year-old ranked 16th in birdie average and 13th in GIR percentage while also finishing top-25 in scrambling. He's made just one career appearance at the PGA Tour level, missing the cut at the 2011 U.S. Open.

147. John Chin - R
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $800,000
2017-18 Earnings: NA

Chin flashed his clutch gene during the Web.com Tour regular season finale, notching a runner-up finish at the WinCo Foods Portland Open to vault inside the top-25 on the money list and therefore earn a PGA Tour card. He posted three top-10s in 23 starts, but his missed cuts ballooned into double digits. The 31-year-old ranked 11th in both GIR percentage and total driving, but wasn't stellar with the flat stick.

148. Vaughn Taylor
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $800,000
2017-18 Earnings: $965,691

Perhaps best known for picking up his second and third wins on the PGA Tour a decade apart, Taylor continues to grind it out year after year. Taylor topped the $1 million mark in each of his first seven seasons on the PGA Tour, but he's only topped that mark once in his past eight seasons. Though Taylor continues to grind, he's well past his prime and as such, his upside is severely limited. Taylor should not be considered in salary cap leagues this season.

149. Seamus Power
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $800,000
2017-18 Earnings: $791,018

Power has spent two seasons on the PGA Tour and he's finished 130th and 114th on the FedEx points list. While Power improved his FedEx position last season, when consider that he was 15th on the PGA Tour in strokes-gained putting, the minimal gain in points is a bit of a letdown. Power's overall game is not where it needs to be in order to see a significant improvement. Power would need to improve his tee-to-green game while maintaining his incredible putting from last season and that's just not likely to happen. With that in mind, Power is not a good salary cap option this season.

150. Tyrone Van Aswegen - C
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $800,000
2017-18 Earnings: $763,584

The 2017-18 season must've felt like deja vu for the workhorse Van Aswegen, who played more than 30 events and netted just one top-10 finish for a second straight season. The only difference was that this year's repeat wasn't good enough to retain his PGA Tour card in FedExCup points as he fell just two spots shy of the feat. The 36-year-old journeyman tends to struggle with his distance and accuracy off the tee but scrambled his way to six top-25 finishes and 20 made cuts in 2017-18. Expect more of the same with little room for much else from the man who has yet to relinquish his PGA Tour card since earning it back in 2014.

151. Tom Lovelady - C
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $800,000
2017-18 Earnings: $700,783

Crazy long off the tee (316 avg) and a decent putter as well, Lovelady managed a pair of top-10s in the weaker-fielded Corales Puntacana and Barbasol Championship events in his rookie season. The 25-year-old certainly has some developing to do, but there's upside for improvement if he can hit more fairways and avoid making too many bogeys. Expect inconsistency from the youngster but it would be no surprise to see him contend in a few events in 2018-19.

152. Shane Lowry - C
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $800,000
2017-18 Earnings: $696,897

Lowry's disappointing 2017-18 saw zero top-10s and only four top-25s in 19 starts on the PGA Tour. The burly Irishman has flashed signs of talent in big tournaments, but his limited play on the PGA Tour along with his poor performance the past two seasons makes him a menacing pick in most fantasy golf formats. As such, his outlook for next season looks similar to the past two, though he should strike a top-10 at some point if he can find his rhythm for four consecutive rounds.

153. David Hearn - C
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $800,000
2017-18 Earnings: $622,383

After six-straight years of retaining his card, Hearn has slipped outside the top 125 in FedEx Cup points the last two seasons. He managed 21 events last season but made only 11 cuts with a pair of top-10s (one of them in the 2-man Zurich Classic). Considering his past of solid but underwhelming play, he's due for a slight bounce back but will need a full slate of events to really have a shot at cracking $1M in earnings for the sixth time in his career.

154. Wesley Bryan - E
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $800,000
2017-18 Earnings: $498,166

Bryan is coming off two of the worst driving seasons imaginable. Not only does he not hit it far, he doesn't hit in straight, ranking 186th and 193rd in strokes gained: off the tee. He's known as a wizard with the wedge and he's a very good putter, so there is hope. Even though Bryan was a rookie two years ago, he's less than two years from turning 30, so he's not exactly young. Still, despite missing almost half his cuts last season with only one top-25, we could envision moderate success on shorter courses in lesser fields.

155. Johnson Wagner - C
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $750,000
2017-18 Earnings: $656,322

The 38-year-old Wagner ran into a buzzsaw this season as he failed to record a top-10 for the first time in a full season on the PGA Tour. It's now been consecutive seasons of less than $700,000 in earnings for Wagner, who has breached $1M in six of his 12 years on tour. It's hard to say what his 2018-19 season will look like, but it's most likely somewhere between $600,000 and $1,000,000 if he can tee it up in at least 20 events.

156. Chase Wright - R
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $740,000
2017-18 Earnings: NA

Wright's 2018 Web.com Tour campaign was highlighted by a victory at the Rust-Oleum Championship, but he ultimately gathered only six top-25s in 24 starts. He still managed to finish top-10 on the regular season money list while ranking top-30 in putting average, birdie average and driving accuracy.

157. Kyoung-Hoon Lee - R
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $730,000
2017-18 Earnings: $23,759

Lee failed to find the winner's circle on the Web.com Tour in 2018, but he posted a trio of runner-up finishes to ultiamtely finish fifth on the regular season money list. The 27-year-old Korean placed T47 during his lone start on th PGA Tour last October at the CJ Cup. Lee ranked top-25 on the Web.com Tour in both GIR percentage and birdie average, but was outside of the top-100 in total driving which could hurt his productivity at the next level.

158. Martin Trainer - R
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $715,000
2017-18 Earnings: NA

The former USC Trojan was one of only two players to win twice on the Web.com Tour in 2018, claiming victories at both the El Bosque Mexico Championship and Price Cutter Charity Championship. He cooled off a bit near the end of the season, however, missing thre consecutive cuts from the Ellie Mae Classic through the Nationwide Children's Hospital Championship before placing outside of the top-50 at the Albertsons Boise Open. He still managed to rank 12th or better in birdie average and driving distance.

159. Cameron Davis - R
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $700,000
2017-18 Earnings: NA

Long, lanky and 23-years old, Davis made a splash in his first Web.com season by winning the Nashville Open and posting three other top-3 finishes. After a T3 at the Web.com Tour Championship, Davis sealed the deal by earning his first PGA Tour card. David was top-10 in driving distance, greens in regulation and putting average on the Web.com Tour in 2017-18, so expect that well-rounded game to fare well on the PGA Tour. There's plenty of upside but it may take a couple years before he posts a $1 million season on the PGA Tour.

160. Kyle Jones - R
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $700,000
2017-18 Earnings: NA

Jones had a relatively busy schedule with 26 starts on the Web.com Tour in 2018, racking up five top-10s and two second-place finishes to come in 11th on the regular season money list. The 25-year-old Baylor product ranked top-20 in both driving accuracy and GIR percentage, but he lacks significant power off the tee. A shortcoming in distance could hurt him at the next level, having earned a PGA Tour card for the first time in his career.

161. Martin Piller - C
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $700,000
2017-18 Earnings: $847,304

Piller has bounced between the Web.com Tour and PGA Tour each year for the last six seasons, but this season he showed progress in netting $847,304 on the PGA Tour. However, he fell into the unenviable No. 126 spot in the FedExCup standings, one shy of retaining his card automatically. Piller's year was summarized by below average play in all aspects expect his putting, where he was 79th on tour in strokes gained: putting, though he did earn two top-5 finishes, his best a T3 at the CareerBuilder Challenge. Piller's prospects for this season are likely capped given he's in his early thirties and has ricocheted between tours the last six years. It's best to avoid him in salary cap leagues as well as draft leagues.

162. Lucas Glover - C
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $700,000
2017-18 Earnings: $789,382

Glover played just 18 events and none since the U.S. Open as he has dealt with his wife's domestic violence charge during THE PLAYERS Championship. As such, Glover notched just one top-10 at the CIMB Classic. He's back to playing and was able to regain his card via the Web.com Tour Finals, but even with a full schedule, don't expect anything outstanding from the three-time PGA Tour winner as his U.S. Open exemption from his 2009 victory ends after 2019.

163. Aaron Baddeley - C
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $700,000
2017-18 Earnings: $725,928

Long considered a budding star and one of the best putters on the PGA Tour, Baddeley has regressed the last two years, notching just one top-10 in the 2017-18 season with just 15-of-27 made cuts and an uncharacteristic negative strokes gained: putting. The Aussie finished 132 in FedExCup points in 2017-18, just outside the top 125, but his future doesn't look to be on the upswing heading forward. He's undraftable in salary cap leagues and draft leagues.

164. Derek Fathauer - C
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $700,000
2017-18 Earnings: $708,712

Fathauer has teetered on the outskirts of the PGA Tour for the last four years, this season notching just one top-10 as he made only 14-of-28 cuts. Fathauer's game relies heavily on his putter which limits his upside to consistently contend in tournaments. It's best to stay away from such a low ceiling in all formats.

165. Talor Gooch - C
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $700,000
2017-18 Earnings: $654,200

Gooch's rookie season on the PGA Tour came and went without a top-10 finish, but did include five top-25s as he earned just north of $650,000. He's got plenty of development to do as the 26-year-old was very average in iron play and putting and below average off the tee due to inaccuracy. Don't expect much to change from last season to this one, though there's a decent chance for him to notch his first PGA Tour top-10 at some point in 2018-19.

166. David Lingmerth - C
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $700,000
2017-18 Earnings: $616,758

Lingmerth failed to crack the top-10 in any of his 26 starts this season, his best finish was a T11 at The Greenbrier. The Swede is accurate off the tee and a good putter each year, but his lack of consistency everywhere else this season left him on the wrong side of the top 125. Should he manage to play in around 25 events next season, expect a return to the top 125 as he has done in four of the last six seasons. He's not a guy who is likely to win the Memorial Tournament again, but he should post at least one top-10.

167. Chris Thompson - R
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $625,000
2017-18 Earnings: NA

Thompson has achieved his lifelong dream of securing a PGA Tour card at the ripe age of 42. The Kansas product turned professional back in 1999, so it's been quite the journey for nearly two decades. In 2018 on the Web.com Tour, Thompson racked up five top-10s and nine top-25s in 23 starts to finish 20th on the regular season money list.

168. Ben Silverman - C
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $600,000
2017-18 Earnings: $793,140

Playing in his first full season on the PGA Tour, Silverman earned two top-10s and showcased his driving accuracy and putting prowess, earning positive marks in strokes gained: off-the-tee and strokes gained: putting. Both top-10s came in the 2017 portion of the season but he did post three other top-15s later in the year in weaker-fielded events. Silverman bloomed later in his career and now sits at age 30 with limited PGA Tour experience, so it's best to avoid him in all types of leagues considering his low upside.

169. Jim Furyk - C
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $600,000
2017-18 Earnings: $660,010

Now age 48, Furyk's hall-of-fame career of consistent play is winding down. Although he's still one of the best scramblers on tour, his lack of length off the tee continues to hamper him each year. His 2018 Ryder Cup captain duties likely preoccupied him to some degree, but don't expect any sort of large rebound next season for the aging veteran. He'll be competitive on courses where accuracy is rewarded, but it's best to avoid Furyk in most season-long formats.

170. Hudson Swafford - E
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $600,000
2017-18 Earnings: $569,391

Swafford followed up his best year on Tour, 2016-17, with his worst. He had zero top-10s and only two top-25s in 22 starts, one in an opposite-field event. Any time a golfer is on the wrong side of 30 and starts a decline, you wonder whether he will be able to ascend again. We'd wait and see on Swafford, 31, before investing in him.

171. Matt Jones - F
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $600,000
2017-18 Earnings: $538,681

Now 38 years of age, Jones appears to be tapering off after his career peaked between 2013-2016. The last three seasons he's failed to notch a single top-10 finish, but has found a way to keep his PGA Tour card. Now on the downhill slope of his career, the Aussie should be avoided in most formats given his limited upside.

172. Peter Malnati - F
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $600,000
2017-18 Earnings: $420,001

Malnati broke through for his only PGA Tour victory in the fall of 2015, but in the two seasons that followed he has failed to post a top-10 finish. Malnati has proven himself a top-20 putter in each of the last three seasons but struggles mighily with his ballstriking compared to other pros. All said, his upside is capped by his weak tee to green game and he simply hasn't shown improvement in this aspect in the last three seasons, so avoid him in all formats.

173. Sepp Straka - R
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $575,000
2017-18 Earnings: NA

The 25-year-old Austrian ranked top-25 in both GIR percentage and total driving on the Web.com Tour in 2017-18, leading to a win at the KC Golf Classic and a third-place finish at the Web.com Tour Championship to earn a PGA Tour card for the first time in his career. Concerns lie in the fact that Straka posted only three top-25s in 26 events last season, but solid ball striking is an intriguing quality for the rookie.

174. Nicholas Lindheim - C
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $550,000
2017-18 Earnings: $593,842

After earning his card via the Web.com Tour Finals, Lindheim earned just a single top-10 while missing the cut in half his 26 starts. His inconsistency, especially in his ballstriking, has proven to be his downfall despite solid putting. As such, he's not worth consideration in any format, despite having full PGA Tour status in the 2018-19 season.

175. Graeme McDowell - C
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $550,000
2017-18 Earnings: $581,024

With just one top-10 in the past two seasons combined, it's looking more and more like the GMac of old won't return to prominence. Now two years removed from his last $2M+ season, it appears the Northern Irishman's great putting can no longer cover for his lack of distance. Again with conditional status, it will be very difficult for him to maintain his card if he continues at his declining pace. Though it might be hard to swallow, GMac is no longer a relevant force in fantasy golf.

176. Mackenzie Hughes - E
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $550,000
2017-18 Earnings: $518,476

It's not uncommon for a golfer, especially a young one, to take a step back after a breakthrough season. But what happened to Hughes was more than a step back – it was akin to falling down a flight of stairs. The Canadian had a win and eight other top-25s in 2016-17. In 2017-18, he had only three top-25s and missed way more than half his cuts (17-of-28). Hughes is entering his age-28 season, so he arrived to the Tour rather late, which makes a reversal less likely. Another wait-and-see recommendation.

177. Denny McCarthy - C
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $550,000
2017-18 Earnings: $498,341

McCarthy's rookie season was characterized by a single top-10 and just 13-of-22 made cuts. Denny's driving is PGA Tour average and his putting is great, but his iron game is incredibly underdeveloped. After earning full PGA Tour status by winning the Web.com Tour Championship and overall Web.com Tour Finals, he'll need to maintain his momentum to outpace last year's weak rookie campaign. As a fringe talent, don't expect anything special from McCarthy in the 2018-19 season, but there's a chance he'll ride his current momentum to some solid finishes in the fall season.

178. Jose de Jesus Rodriguez - R
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $550,000
2017-18 Earnings: $0

The 37-year-old from Irapuato, Mexico has spent much of his professional career bouncing around various Tours all across the Americas, but he's finally reached the pinnacle of a PGA Tour card thanks to seven top-25s in 23 starts on the Web.com Tour in 2018. The 5-foot-10, 188-pound veteran embraces the nickname ""El Camarón"" (the shrimp) while he ranked just 135th in total driving this season. El Camarón is the all-time money leader of the PGA Tour Latinoamerica and he also won the United Leasing and Finance Championship at one of the toughest venues on the Web.com Tour this season.

179. Curtis Luck - F
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $545,000
2017-18 Earnings: $19,491

Luck made the cut en route to a T58 finish during his lone start on the PGA Tour in 2017-18 at the Arnold Palmer Invitational, one year after making six cuts in 10 appearances while losing rookie status. He'll still be considered a first-time PGA Tour member this season, having earned his card through the Web.com Tour Finals after finishing top-25 at the Web.com Tour Championship, Albertsons Boise Open and Nationwide Children's Hospital Championship.

180. Julian Etulain - W
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $525,000
2017-18 Earnings: NA

Etulain lost his PGA Tour card following the 2016-17 season in which he missed eight cuts in 22 starts while raking in less than $500K in earnings. He actually missed even more cuts on the Web.com Tour in 2018, but added six top-25s and a win at the Chitimacha Louisiana Open. The 30-year-old Argentinian struggled off the tee, but still managed to finish top-50 in birdie average.

181. Adam Svensson - R
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $525,000
2017-18 Earnings: $0

The Canadian 24-year-old missed the cut during his lone start on the PGA Tour in 2018, which came on native soil at the RBC Canadian Open in July. Svensson racked up four top-10s and a win at the Bahams Great Abaco Classic on the Web.com Tour, however, climbing to 14th in the regular season money list. He ranked just 131st in total driving, but was fourth in par-three scoring.

182. Hunter Mahan - F
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $515,000
2017-18 Earnings: $457,337

Mahan was in danger of losing his PGA Tour card for the first time since becoming a rookie in 2004, but the 36-year-old posted finishes of T33-T2-T17 throughout the Web.com Tour Finals to regain status. He posted just one top-10 finish in 21 starts in 2017-18, coming in relatively unimpressive fashion at the Barbasol Championship. Mahan fell to 192nd in SG: around-the-green and 145th in SG: approach, but still managed to rank top-45 on tour in GIR percentage, driving accuracy and birdie average.

183. Ben Crane - C
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $500,000
2017-18 Earnings: $620,646

Crane notched only one top-10 again last year as his game has withered in his forties. He'll have conditional status on the PGA Tour this season but hasn't earned more than $650,000 since 2014, so don't expect any sort of turnaround from the former member of the Golf Boys. His ceiling in incredibly limited at this point and he's not worth considering in any format.

184. Steve Stricker - C
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $500,000
2017-18 Earnings: $582,566

Now over 50, Stricker's focus is more on the Champion's Tour than the PGA Tour, but his game still appears relevant despite zero top-10s in 12 starts last season. He notched four top-25s, however, while showcasing some solid iron play and short game. Given his very limited schedule, he's not a factor in draft leagues or salary cap leagues, but his DFS value could be there if the course tailors to his world class wedges and putter.

185. Michael Thompson - C
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $500,000
2017-18 Earnings: $563,972

In the 2016-17 season, Thompson paced the PGA Tour in strokes gained: putting, and in 2017-18 he was 14th. But little else can be said for the journeyman who failed to earn a single top-10 in 2017-18. He's earned between $500,000 and $600,000 each of the last four seasons, so expect more of the same from the Alabama alum.

186. Shawn Stefani - C
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $500,000
2017-18 Earnings: $523,204

Stefani notched his lone top-10 in the second event of the season, but only found pocket stretches of consistency between his 13 missed cuts in 25 events. The journeyman has now grinded his way to status on the PGA Tour in the last seven seasons after successfully making it again through the Web.com Tour Finals. However, with exactly one top-10 the last three seasons, it's hard to forecast anything more than that for the Texas native in the year ahead. He's not rosterable in salary cap leagues or draft leagues.

187. Adam Schenk - F
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $500,000
2017-18 Earnings: $474,923

Schenk collected just one top-10 in his 2017-18 rookie campaign, and sadly it was in the Zurich 2-man event where he needed the help of teammate Tyler Duncan to pull off the feat. The positive here is that Schenk is a long hitter and was an above average putter on the PGA Tour this season, but don't expect him to make a huge leap this season. Expect around $500,000 in earnings and a return to the Web.com Tour Finals where he'll need to fight for his card yet again.

188. Wes Roach - F
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $485,000
2017-18 Earnings: NA

Roach spent two full seasons on the PGA Tour in 2014 and 2016, but failed to finish top-150 in the FedExCup standings during both campaigns as he spent the past two years on the Web.com Tour. In 2018 he compiled 10 top-25s and six top-10s in 25 starts en route to earning a PGA Tour card via the Web.com Tour Finals. Roach is barely inside of the top-400 in the Official World Golf Ranking, however, but he did finish the 2018 Web.com Tour season 11th in putting average and 28th in birdie average.

189. Joey Garber - R
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $450,000
2017-18 Earnings: NA

Garber missed the cut in half of his 24 starts on the Web.com Tour in 2018, but he also won the Rex Hospital Open en route to a trio of top-10 performances. The former Georgia Bulldog hit less than 60 percent of his fairways in regulation as he ranked just 119th in ball striking. He went six consecutive starts without a top-25 heading into the Web.com Tour finale, so he may struggle at the start of this PGA Tour season as well.

190. Fabian Gomez - F
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $450,000
2017-18 Earnings: $437,032

Gomez tied his career high with 16 made cuts throughout the 2017-18 PGA Tour season, but descended to 162nd in the FedExCup standings and was forced to regain his card through the Web.com Tour Finals. The 39-year-old finished T17-T9 at the Web.com Tour Championship and Albertsons Boise Open to end the season on a positive note, but he remains outside of the top 500 in the Official World Golf Ranking. In 2017-18, Gomez lost strokes in every category except putting, ranking 40th on tour with the flat stick from inside 10 feet.

191. Brady Schnell - R
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $425,000
2017-18 Earnings: $0

Schnell collected just two top-10s in 24 starts on the Web.com Tour in 2018, but a win at the Wichita Open earned him a spot in the top-25 of the regular season money list. The 33-year-old was carried by a hot flat stick as he ranked second in putting average, but he fell outside of the top-115 in both GIR percentage and driving distance. It's looking like an uphill battle for Schnell to finish top-125 in the FedExCup standings during the 2018-19 PGA Tour season.

192. Stephan Jaeger - F
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $415,000
2017-18 Earnings: $422,260

Jaeger was successful in finishing top-25 during the Web.com Tour Finals to maintain his status on the PGA Tour after finishing the 2017-18 season 165th in the FedExCup standings. The German added top-8 finishes at the Web.com Tour Championship and DAP Championship, rising to 220th in the Official World Golf Ranking. He finished outside of the top-125 on the PGA Tour in SG: Approach, SG: Putting and driving accuracy, however.

193. Hank Lebioda - R
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $400,000
2017-18 Earnings: NA

Lebioda snuck in the top 25 on the Web.com Tour regular-season money list in 2018 with a T34 at the WinCo Foods Portland Open before struggling through the first three legs of the Finals. He's made 18 of 25 cuts and collected four top-10s to go along with seven top-25s. Lebioda has never played in an event on the PGA Tour, but he ranked 32nd in ball striking at the Web.com level in 2017-18.

194. Cody Gribble - E
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $400,000
2017-18 Earnings: $302,593

Gribble had a horrendous season, missing the cut in 15-of-25 events with zero top-25s. A look at the previous season shows he wasn't much better – outside of winning the Sanderson Farms. Almost $800,000 of his roughly $1.3 million was earned in winning that opposite-field event, which is starting to look every bit as much of an outlier as Derek Ernst's infamous win in the 2013 Wells Fargo. It sure seems as if Gribble will need to head to the Web.com Tour Finals next season to regain his PGA Tour card for 2019-2020 -- that's if he even qualifies. He'd have to finish inside the top-200 in the FedEx Cup point standings in 2018-19, and he was 182nd in the 2017-18 season. (Gribble will always be able to play under Past Champions status, but that is near the bottom of the priority list.)

195. Sangmoon Bae - F
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $375,000
2017-18 Earnings: $184,057

The South Korean completed his mandatory two years of military service in 2017 before returning to action on the PGA Tour, appearing in 17 events throughout the season. Bae earned a spot in the Web.com Tour Finals thanks to an extension stemming from his lengthy absence, and he didn't disappoint with a win at the Albertsons Boise Open to ultimately regain status on the PGA Tour for the 2018-19 season. Expectations should be tempered, however, as the 32-year-old missed 11 cuts and added a withdrawal in 17 starts during his 2017-18 campaign at the PGA Tour level.

196. Max Homa - F
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $365,000
2017-18 Earnings: NA

Homa missed a whopping 15 cuts in 17 starts during his 2016-17 campaign on the PGA Tour, so he was forced to spend the 2018 season at the Web.com level where he notched nine top-25s in 27 events. With top-10s at the Albertsons Boise Open and DAP Championship, Homa finished top-25 overall during the Web.com Tour Finals. He's missed the cut in well over half of his 53 career starts on the PGA Tour, however.

197. Seth Reeves - R
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $300,000
2017-18 Earnings: NA

Reeves secured his first PGA Tour card with a tie for fourth at the DAP Championship in a season that saw four top-10 finishes on the Web.com Tour. The long-hitting lefty will have his work cut out for him on the PGA Tour next season, but a full schedule should give him every opportunity to continue his career ascension. Just don't expect anything huge in his first taste of the PGA Tour.

198. Roberto Díaz - F
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $295,000
2017-18 Earnings: $235,635

Díaz finished the 2017-18 PGA Tour season at 189th in the FedExCup standings with 11 made cuts in 25 starts, but he went on to post four consecutive top-25s during the Web.com Tour Finals to keep his card. The 31-year-old is hindered by a lack of power off the tee, but he ranked 67th on Tour in strokes gained: putting last season.

199. Cameron Tringale - F
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $225,000
2017-18 Earnings: $179,459

Tringale needed a T3 finish at the Web.com Tour Championship just to keep his PGA Tour card after a brutal 2017-18 campaign in which he missed 19 cuts in 26 events, falling to 195th in the FedExCup standings. The 31-year-old especially struggled off the tee, ranking 161st in driving distance and 191st in FIR percentage. Both his scoring and birdie average were well below average as a result, so it wouldn't be a surprise to see the downward trend continue during the 2018-19 season.

200. Camilo Villegas - E
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $200,000
2017-18 Earnings: $229,439

It's hard to believe it was more than a decade ago that the dashing Colombian burst upon the PGA Tour with two wins during the 2008 FedEx Cup playoffs (including the Tour Championship) and more than $4 million in earnings. But Villegas is now a lot older, 36, and at least a little less dashing. He played in only 14 tournaments last season, and he's missed almost 75 percent of his cuts the last four seasons. But don't cry for Villegas, Argentina. He's banked more than $25 million in worldwide earnings and could continue to play under the Past Champions status. He just doesn't have any fantasy value.

201. Roger Sloan - F
2018-19 Projected Earnings: $200,000
2017-18 Earnings: $0

The Canadian earned his PGA Tour card via the Web.com Tour Finals for just the second time in his career and will play a full schedule for the first time since the 2014-15 season. Back in his last full year he failed to post a top-10, his best finish a T18 at the 2015 John Deere Classic. Though he's posted 3-4 top-10s each of the last three seasons on the Web.com Tour, he should again have a tough time competing on the PGA Tour. It would be a surprise to see a top-10 from the 31-year-old who has yet to accomplish the feat on the PGA Tour.
