Harris English to win and each-way

Matt Fitzpatrick to win and each-way

All roads now lead to the season-ending Tour Championship with this week marking the first of three FedEx Cup play-off events, the St. Jude Championship at TPC Southwind in Memphis.

Usually featuring the top 70 players in the FedEx rankings, Rory McIlroy's decision to swerve the tournament means there will be 69 players battling it out for the spoils in Tennessee.

World number one Scottie Scheffler, who has added the PGA Championship and Open Championship to his collection this season to leave him needing just the US Open to complete the Grand Slam, has been installed as the 14/5 favourite with LiveScore Bet.

English to repeat 2013 trick

Harris English comes into this tournament under the radar at odds of 40/1 and there are plenty of reasons to get on board with him this week, notably the fact that he won on his TPC Southwind debut back in 2013.

The American has also registered a fourth-placed effort at the course in 2021 and a top-10 result in 2017, evidence of his affection for this layout, and his form this season suggests a sixth PGA Tour title is not far away.

English added the Farmers Insurance to his CV back in January and he almost grabbed his first Major, having ended up tied-second at the PGA Championship and runner-up at the Open last month.

Straka to continue impressive season

Austrian Sepp Straka has been one of the most consistent players on tour this season, with only Scheffler and McIlroy ahead of him in the FedEx Cup standings.

The 32-year-old's strong tee-to-green game, which has him ranked seventh in strokes gained in that department, should stand him in good stead at TPC Southwind, a course that demands precision.

Straka has won twice this season, the most recent of those coming at the Truist Championship in May, and he will be eager to keep his form going with an automatic spot in Europe's Ryder Cup team also on his mind.

Fitzpatrick to get into Memphis mix

Matt Fitzpatrick has picked up over the last couple of months and he heads into this event in strong form, with his last four starts producing efforts of T8-T4-T4-T8.

Those back-to-back top-five results came at the Scottish Open and the Open before he then returned to the PGA Tour last week and registered a positive top-10 finish.

Something has clicked for the Englishman, who endured a miserable start to the campaign, and he looks a dangerous contender this week at a course he has previous at.

Fitzpatrick has notched two top-five finishes at TPC Southwind, along with a top-10 and a tie for 18th in six total appearances here, and he looks to have every chance of lifting the trophy in Memphis.
