This is following the latest qualifying events and also takes into account the news that Tiger Woods will be missing from the Ryder Cup this year. 

Don’t forget that the new US Ryder Cup qualification system is in place so there are only 8 rather than 10 automatic qualification spots this year. 

2008 US Ryder Cup Points – (24 July 2008)

1 Stewart Cink 4906

4 Jim Furyk 4186
5 Anthony Kim 3807
6 Justin Leonard 3278
7 Boo Weekley 2592
8 Steve Stricker 2557

 

With time running out the really interesting part is looking at who is hovering just outside the top eight with time running out and opportunities to earn those valuable points running out.  Listed below are those who are just outside the automatic qualification spots.
