Brandt Snedeker and Matt Kuchar remained No. 1 and No. 2 atop the 2013 FedEx Cup standings this week despite not participating in the Honda Classic in Florida over the weekend. Last week’s No. 7 Russell Henley made a big leap up to No. 3, however, after finishing No. 13 overall at 1-under.
2013 FedEx Cup standings: Russell Henley makes big leap to No. 3
Brandt Snedeker and Matt Kuchar once again top this week’s 2013 FedEx Cup standings, but Russell Henley made a move up to No. 3 after an impressive showing at the Honda Classic in Florida.


Henley bumped Phil Mickelson and Hunter Mahan down a peg. Brian Gay also dropped a spot to No. 6, though he actually participated in the weekend’s PGA Event. His 51st-place finish netted him zero points in the standings.
John Merrick missed the cut and dropped two spots as a result. He is one spot behind Charles Howell III, who received a modest points boost for his 29th-place finish.
Dustin Johnson and Tiger Woods remain in ninth and 10th place, respectively, after also failing to place in the top 30 at Palm Beach Gardens.
