PGATour.com is ramping up its video streaming of the FedExCup championship, with live coverage of key holes at all four tournaments leading up to the crowning of the champion and $10 million winner.

The site, which is run by Turner Sports, will also feature a new video player and a social media platform for the player that will combine Twitter, Facebook and MySpace into a "single feed," which Turner says is a first for PGA Tour coverage.

The FedExCup playoff begins Aug. 27-30 at The Barclays. The points leader is Tiger Woods.
