While the top players and most of golf's attention will be on the Tour Championship in Atlanta, the real drama will be taking place in Mississippi.

The Southern Farm Bureau Classic is the final event of the season for players to earn enough money to keep their jobs for next season -- or at least avoid a trip to terrifying Q-School.

At the end of play Sunday, players in the top 125 on the money list will retain the playing cards for next season and be fully exempt. Those below will have uncertain futures, either playing on conditional status, moving down to the Buy.com Tour or heading to the Qualifying Tournament, a six-round opportunity to grab one of about 35 playing cards.

All of the players around the 125 mark are in the field in Madison. Included on that list is Dan Forsman, who enters the week on the bubble, a little more than $11,000 above No. 126 Pete Jordan. Forsman is completing his 18th season on the PGA Tour and has never missed out on the top 125. He's also rolling the dice this week, having not sent in an application for Q-School.

Those around the bubble are not the only players in the field, however. Many strong players who failed to qualify for the Tour Championship are playing this week trying to pick up a win or finish the season in style.

Among that group is Brian Henninger, whose only two career victories have come in this event, but neither came over 72 holes. Henninger won a 36-hole affair in 1994 when weather played havoc with the tournament. He beat Mike Sullivan in a playoff that year.

Last year, Henninger won a 54-hole event that included a day off on Friday so players could attend the funeral service for Payne Stewart, who had died in a plane crash earlier in the week.

Henninger shot three rounds in the 60s, including a 69 on Sunday to pull away from Chris DiMarco, who had shared the second-round lead. DiMarco won't be back in Mississippi this year. After winning the Pennsylvania Classic earlier this year, DiMarco is in Atlanta for his first Tour Championship.

This is the final time most of the players in this tournament will tee it up this season. Most will not be in the field for next week's American Express Championship in Spain, nor will they play the variety of Silly Season events in November and December.
