THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. (AP) " Bernhard Langer withdrew from the PGA Tour Champions' playoff opener Friday because of a left knee injury. Langer leads the 50-and-over tour with four victories and has wrapped up the season money title with $2,697,459. He tops the Charles Schwab Cup Playoffs standings, and has a big enough advantage over second-place Miguel Angel Jimenez that he will keep the No. The playoff field will be cut to 54 for the Dominion Charity Classic next week in Richmond, Virginia, and to 36 for the Charles Schwab Cup Championship the follow week in Scottsdale, Arizona. At the Charles Schwab Championship, points will be reset so that the top five only have to win to capture the Charles Schwab Cup.
