NEXT STOP: PGA TOUR / 2011 Over the final weeks of the 2010 season, the Nationwide Tour is tracking the competition for a spot in "The 25". The top-25 money winners at the conclusion of next week's Nationwide Tour Championship at Daniel Island in Charleston, S.C. (Oct. 28-31) will be awarded PGA TOUR cards for 2011. Miccosukee Championship winner Jason Gore put himself in contention to recapture his PGA TOUR card. The Californian came to Miami 124th on the money list. While he still has a lot of work to do, he arrives in Ponte Vedra Beach this week 39th. Scott Gutschewski is in a strong position to earn a return trip to the PGA TOUR as he grabbed a T2 finish to move from 27th to 18th. After missing his last five cuts, Chris Nallen fell four spots and now occupies the bubble position at No. 25. He has a $2,853 cushion over David Hearn , whose was in contention for the win in Miami only to play the last 11 holes in five-over par. At one point he was projected to finish the week inside the top 15 on the money list. The Canadian started the week at No. 30. The Nationwide Tour is in Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla. for the first time this week, playing the Winn-Dixie Jacksonville Open presented by Planters at TPC Sawgrass / Dye's Valley Course at PGA TOUR headquarters.
