Guardian golf writer Lawrence Donegan in his blog eviscerates the FedEx Cup on the basis of its confounding format that even the players don't fully understand. Donegan writes:
"Having rolled up to the PGA Tour HQ with a wheelbarrow full of money and tipped it out on the promise of a great show in golf, the company [FedEx] now finds its name linked with a standing joke, an event that few people care about and even fewer understand.
"How does that go down in the corporate boardroom? We'll never know for sure but if I was Mr FedEx I would be tempted ask for my money back, or at least make sure the wheelbarrow is empty when the PGA Tour comes knocking in the hope of renewing the contract."
