This year, Scottie Scheffler won't be getting any strokes on the field. Not that the world's No. 1 golfer needs any. The latest format to the PGA Tour's FedEx Cup playoffs will be a welcome change for most of the 29 other golfers who also advanced to the Tour Championship,

BetMGM has Scheffler as +165 to successfully defend his Tour Championship and FedEx Cup titles, which can come as no great shock after he's won five of his last 10 starts. Three-time FedEx Cup champion Rory McIlroy is +800 and Tommy Fleetwood, who has three top-four finishes among his last five starts, is +1200.

East Lake Golf Club, the historic home of Bobby Jones, has hosted the Tour Championship since 2004 (except 2007). Interestingly, in 2025, the Tour Championship eliminates the starting strokes system, creating a fair 72-hole stroke-play competition where all 30 players begin on equal footing.
