(Tournament Winner/Top Finish)
Rickie Fowler (Win +3000/Top 10 +260)
(9th in FedEx Cup Standings)
Fowler simply has never looked better. Ranked 5th on TOUR in “Scoring Average”, 6th in “Birdie Average”, and 8th in “Strokes Gained – Total”, if Rickie’s jailbird putter stays hot, he’ll pose a major threat at TPC Southwind.
Wyndham Clark (Win +3000/Top 10 +275)
(5th in FedEx Cup Standings)
Clark is having a breakout season notching his first 2 wins on TOUR this season, including the U.S Open. This season, he’s 13th in “Scoring Average” and 16th in “Par 4 Scoring”. If Clark peppers fairways all weekend he can take it very low in the Volunteer State.
Tom Kim (Win +3500/Top 10 +300)
(14th in FedEx Cup Standings)
The ankle injury adds uncertainty, but the odds are too high to pass on the young stud. Kim has 7 top 10s this season and is coming off a T2 at the British Open.
Ranked 9th on TOUR in “Approach to Green” and 7th in “Driving Accuracy”, Kim’s a hot putter away from notching career win #3.
J.T. Poston (Win +6000/Top 10 +450)
(45th in FedEx Cup Standings)
J.T. did make the playoffs, Poston not Thomas. Not many players enter the playoffs in better form off the heels of four top 10 finishes in his last five starts.
J.T. plays well at the FedEx St. Jude Championship, recording three top 30 finishes in his last four appearances in The Grind City.
