Hamilton: English at a potential 'turning point'

ATLANTA – Harris English had found plenty of ways to derail his East Lake aspirations.

In 2013, he played his last three rounds of the season at the BMW Championship in 4 over par to finish 31^st on the FedEx Cup list, just 26 points outside the top 30 and his first trip to the Tour Championship.

Last year, it was missed cuts at his first two postseason stops that cost him a trip to Atlanta when he finished 32^nd on the point list.

So when he teed off at the BMW Championship again perched on the East Lake bubble at 32^nd, it must have felt like a dreaded bout of déjà vu.
