The Barclays will be held Thursday through Sunday at Plainfield Country Club in Edison, N.J. The Playoffs field will be pared down for the Deutsche Bank Championship (100) and the BMW Championship (70), leading to the 30-man Tour Championship.

• Bryden Macpherson and Scott Parel will be in action in the Web.com Tour's WinCo Foods Portland Open in Oregon.

This is the 21st and final regular-season event on the Web.com Tour schedule. On Sunday (Aug. 30th), the first 25 of 50 available PGA Tour cards for the 2015-16 season will be handed out. The top 75 on Sunday night will be exempt into the Finals and guaranteed fully exempt status on the Web.com Tour in 2016 if they do not secure a Tour card. A second set of 25 cards will be on the line at the four-event Web.com Tour Finals, which get under way Sept. 10-13 in Fort Wayne, Ind.
