Rich Beem: Tpc Boston
built 608 days ago
Six rounds into golf’s (OK everyone, chime along in unison) New Playoff Era, Beem has become the FedEx posterchild. Starting the playoffs seeded 134th, he tied for seventh at The Barclays to beat the odds and earn his way to Round 2 outside Boston. And here he is again, whistling while he works and scrambling for his postseason life.

Beem is the longest of long shots in this FedEx Cup finale, who narrowly avoided elimination last week at Westchester with a tie for seventh. It isn't getting any easier outside Boston, where anything lower than second place will send him home.

Apparently, Beem, a self-described procrastinator, likes it when his back is against the wall. Saturday at TPC Boston, he shot 5-under 66, and, at 9-under 133, he shares the midway lead with Aaron Baddeley and Mike Weir.
