Brandon Wu is regularly making cuts but not threatening yet. Patrick Rodgers is in a similar position to Wu, while Joseph Bramlett continues to struggle to make cuts.
McNealy's challenge is that he's pretty good at everything, not great at anything. 48th in driving distance, 92nd in driving accuracy, 131st in greens-in-regulation, 29th in birdies...and 17th in scoring average. This season he's made one Top Ten, three Top 25s, and has made the cut in 3 of 4 events, but he's 22nd in FedExCup standings this year. Last year, he was 58th.
Patrick Rodgers is 59th in FedExCup rank. In 222 career events, he's made 134 cuts, with 3 2nd place finishes, two 3rd place finishes and 17 Top 10 finishes. Brandon Wu is similar, 41 events played, 21 cuts made, one 2nd place, one 3rd place, 5 Top Ten finishes. 82nd in FedExCup rank.
