A thrilling edition of the FedEx Cup will draw to its conclusion over the weekend at East Lake Golf Club, as the top 30 money leaders on the PGA Tour compete in the Tour Championship. Some of the best players in the world will be in action in Georgia, but which player will claim success in Atlanta?
Before Betting On Tour Championship
One of the most illustrious events on the PGA Tour will be staged across the coming weekend, as the Tour Championship will take place at East Lake Golf Club. This stroke play event was first competed in 1967, with the field competing over a distance of 7,346 yards. Tiger Woods holds the aggregate and par records, finishing 23-under when landing success in 2007.
Unlike other events on the PGA Tour, the field will be staggered at the start judged on the number of FedEx Cup points that they have picked up this season. Scottie Scheffler will be a challenging player to overlook this weekend, as the top-ranked player has a two-shot advantage over the field before the first hole of the day.
The American endured one of his most frustrating outings of the season last weekend at the BMW Championship after finishing in a tie for 33rd. However, despite that finish, he starts this weekend with a two-shot lead over Xander Schauffele. He is likely to be Scheffler’s main competition this weekend after continuing his consistent season with a tie for fifth at the BMW Championship last weekend.
Hideki Matsuyama was a winning selection for us at the St. Jude Championship at the start of the month, and the Japanese player could once again hold solid claims this weekend after bypassing the BMW Championship last weekend. Matsuyama will start three shots off the pace, while Keegan Bradley and Ludvig Aberg will start four and five shots behind Scheffler.
Tour Championship Odds & Picks
| Player | Odds |
|---|---|
| Scottie Scheffler | +115 |
| Xander Schauffele | +240 |
| Hideki Matsuyama | +1200 |
| Rory McIlroy | +1800 |
| Ludvig Aberg | +2100 |
| Collin Morikawa | +3000 |
| Sam Burns | +3500 |
Based on his consistent performances this season, it appears very hard to overlook the prospect of Scheffler throwing away his advantage at the Tour Championship this weekend. Therefore, we expect the American to win the season-ending event of the FedEx Cup playoffs.
