Of course it is. It was created to drive at least some level of interest in Tour events after the PGA, which is when the real season used to end. Unofficially.
Bill Haas just finished round 2 in the Sanderson Farms event in MS. He is currently in 21st. Not sure what he needs to do to secure his card for the year.
UPDATE: Just read that Haas need to finish 8th or better this week to earn his tour card for the season. If he does not get to 8th, Haas will need to rely on sponsors exemptions or use his one time exemption for being top 50 in the career money list.
Also, Haas had knee surgery in September to clean up a torn meniscus.

At -4, his currently tied for 21st is only one stroke from Tied for 7th.
He's gotta make some hay on that course over the weekend. Not only is it a mediocre at best Fall event, most of the better players who are playing this week are in China. Which I am guessing is why he picked Sanderson in the 1st place.
even though he's a Klempton guy and we always root against the Klempton guy domestic violence is worse than Klempton so we all want Lucas to finish well - can't imagine the pressure to play well when you know if you don't you will come home to that
so we root for Lucas and Bill this week and agree that won't ever want anything else good to come out of Klempton

Bill ended up t-8th...one stroke short of the 7th he needed
Lucas played well today. Hopefully well enough not to get beat up tonight but I don’t think his wife gives him the number ahead of time so he never really knows.
Can’t imagine playing with that type of pressure.

you’re really cracking yourself up aren’t you
