Golf expert Jason Sobel has his picks set for this weekend's Tour Championship at East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta.
The all-important PGA Tour season finale includes a staggered scoring setup, in which the top ranked players in the FedEx Cup standings start the tournament with a stroke advantage.

1 | 10 under | Scottie Scheffler |
2 | 8 under | Viktor Hovland |
3 | 7 under | Rory McIlroy |
4 | 6 under | Jon Rahm |
5 | 5 under | Lucas Glover |

In four years since this format was introduced to the Tour Championship, the top-seeded player at the start of the tournament has gone on to win three times.
That's why Scottie Scheffler (+137 to Win Outright) is the heavy favorite to win the $18 million prize at East Lake Golf Club. Rory McIlroy - who came from six strokes behind to win the 2022 Tour Championship - is second-favorite at +350.
