Recommended bets:
East Lake Golf Club, just outside Atlanta, welcomes the last 30 players still standing for the climax of the FedExCup play-offs, the Tour Championship.
Scottie Scheffler, the world No.1 and winner of last week's BMW Championship, is a red-hot favourite to retain his crown in an elite field also featuring last year's low-scorer Collin Morikawa and three-time winner Rory McIlroy.

Ryder Cup rookie to make Tour Champs move
It has already been an unforgettable year for Russell Henley, but the best may be yet to come.
Victory at the Arnold Palmer Invitational, a fifth PGA Tour triumph, was the highlight of a season which has culminated in six straight top-20s and a place in the US Ryder Cup team for the first time.
Up to a world ranking of No.4, this unerring tee-to-green specialist and Georgia native has a soft spot for East Lake, where he signed off with a 62 last year for a fourth-place finish.
Henley is a vastly improved putter this year, but seems to continually fly under the radar.
At East Lake, where only 30 tee it up, he can revel in the chance to go low and give Scheffler and the rest plenty to chew on.

Hall to build on BMW heroics
Of the 30 players teeing it up at East Lake, 29 of them were already in the field heading into last week's BMW Championship.
The one outsider who cleared the ropes was Harry Hall, up from 45 to 26 and knocking Lucas Glover out of the running.
That has to give the flat-capped Cornishman a real boost going into uncharted territory, yet he is playing with a swagger which suggests he is not in Georgia just to milk the occasion.
This is all new for the world No.45, but so was last week's BMW Championship, where he shot 68-67-67-70 to finish sixth and no player averages fewer putts than this Briton.
He is a big price to win it but it is hard to see him – or many for that matter – touching Scheffler, so take the 6/1 he finishes in the top five.

Maverick can conform to make run at top 10
Another man who enjoyed a rare old week at Caves Valley last week was Maverick McNealy, who followed up an opening 70 with rounds of 64, 69 and 66 to come home third.
McNealy is rated top-20 in strokes gained and strokes gained putting and if the flat stick is hot, then there is every reason to think he can outrun his top-10 odds.
