2013 FedEx Cup standings: Matt Kuchar moves to 2nd place, Tiger Woods still leads
Matt Kuchar picked up some points at the Crowne Plaza Invitational, but Tiger Woods still holds the advantage.

Kuchar had a shot at winning the Invitational, which would have given him 500 points and second place, but three straight birdies by Boo Weekley kept the victory just one stroke out of Kuchar’s reach. That allowed Weekley to make a jump in the standings, moving from 28th place to sixth. The weekend’s tournament saw no other movement inside the top 10.
Next on the Cup schedule is The Memorial Tournament presented by Nationwide Insurance, running from Thursday May 30 to Sunday June 2. There are 500 points at stake, meaning tour leader Tiger Woods’s No. 1 spot is safe. The rest of the field may see some shuffling, with Keegan Bradley, Kevin Streelman, Matt Kuchar and other top 10 golfers all scheduled to participate.
