The 2012 Valero Texas Open gets under way Thursday and, even though most of golf’s biggest names are noticeably absent, it’s an important tournament for just about everyone involved. Some of the golfers likely to be on the edge of the FedEx Cup playoffs at the end of the season have a chance to grab valuable points, while players fighting to keep their PGA Tour cards could collect a big paycheck to move up the money list.
