The 2022 Tour Championship mar ks the end of the 2021-2022 PGA season and the culmination of the 16th FedExCup Playoffs. East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta will host this event for the 30 qualifying golfers and first place will pay out an absurd $18 million, as far down as 10th place will award $1 million and last place will walk away with $500k. Not bad for four rounds of golf. This Par-70, 7,346-yard course will require an all-round performance from the contenders and the field averaged 68.81 strokes per round in the 2021 edition, so scoring has the potential to be low.

One very important aspect to note this week is that not everyone will start at even par. A staggered scoring system is in place, so FedExCup leader Scottie Scheffler will take a two-stroke advantage into the opening round. Scheffler will start at -10, Patrick Cantlay at -8, Xander Schauffele at -6, Sam Burns at -5 and various groups between -4 and even par. That'll make betting this week's tour nament much different than usual, so make sure you check out the specific bet descriptions when placing your wagers.
