Webb Simpson 'hated' missing BMW, but he's confident he made the right call

ATLANTA – Heading into last week’s BMW Championship, Webb Simpson was third on the playoff points list and exactly where you’d want to be for a postseason push.

Simpson’s response to his position was to take last week off.

“I felt like within my right of playing or not playing, I wanted to be most ready for this week,” Simpson said. “I hated taking it off. BMW is an awesome sponsor. I wanted to play in a tournament with only 70 guys and no cut, but I felt like it was best for me to stay home and get ready for this week.
