Tiger Woods wished to play in the first FedEx Cup playoff event with the hopes that it won’t be his last.

Woods officially entered The Barclays last Thursday that will start on Aug. 26. It would be the first of four playoff events that will conclude the Tour Championship and a $10 million prize to the winner of the yearlong FedEx Cup competition.

Woods is No. 108 in the standings and is eager to go further down the list. Of course, that would depend on the outcome this week at the Wyndham Championship. Only the top 125 players are included for The Barclays which will be held at Ridgewood Country Club.

Woods didn’t play in Ridgewood’s last 2008  tournament. He missed the FedEx tourney due to his knee surgery. It’s the only time that he did not claim the $10 million prize since the game began in 2007.

Now, his goal is just to get to as many playoff events as he can.

Right after The Barclays, the top 100 will precede the second round, the Deutsche Bank Championship outside Boston, which will end on Labor Day. That will be the final event before U.S. Ryder Cup captain Corey Pavin will pick his four wild-card picks.

Woods will play, and Pavin said that Woods is on top of the list.

Players are divided at The Barcleys based on their standing in FedEx Cup. Pavin is currently on No. 107. However, he’s not sure whether to play Ridgewood due to a summer schedule of four majors in a five-week stretch.
