Just a toe in the water for the Players Champs as well...a few that fit the criteria here...

3pts Kim @ 7.2
1pt Stadler @ 110
1pt Goosen @ 50
0.2pts Coceres @ 1000
0.2pts Watney @ 1000
0.2pts Sterne @ 1000

From off the pace I'm not only looking at those that fit the criteria, but also those that are creating enough birdie chances to enable them to put together the -5 or -6 needed to get them into contention, should they keep the bogeys off the card. The 1000s on offer looks a tad generous given that the field is split by only 9 strokes.

So not really players that should play well, but those that could be spectacular.

Sterne, Watney and Coceres all look aggressive enough to do just that - they've all dropped plenty strokes this week, but all 3 have the capability of a low round from off the pace.

Towards the middle, Retief Goosen has been very consistent, not making many mistakes but not quite converting on as many birdie opportunities as he should have. If the putter gets hot today, he's close enough to be in big contention over the final day.

Kevin Stadler is -2 but yesterdays round was a good couple of shots better than that - and the way he saved bogey on 17 after being in the water, and a tough par at 18 shows that I think he can kick on again.

Kim has been in great for a while now - the only question mark is mental fatigue. That aside, he's making the chances, sinking the putts, hitting the greens, and has the mentality to push on from here, something which will be lacking in quite a few of the other names near the top.
