The FedEx Cup Playoffs are here, with the first round kicking off at TPC Southwind for the FedEx St. Jude Championship. We’ve already given you our best bets
. Now we’re focused on prop bets, including a juicy matchup bet between Xander Schauffele and Scottie Scheffler, the two best players in the world this year.Xander Schauffele +115 OVER Scottie Scheffler atScheffler vs. Schauffele is the hottest debate in golf. Scheffler won the Masters, Olympic gold and six total tournaments. Schauffele won the PGA Championship and British Open.
Neither has performed exceptionally well at TPC Southwind over their career, but Xander has a slightly better history including a T6 in 2020. Scheffler missed the cut here in 2022 and was T31 last year after a weekend slide. Schauffele placed T24 including a first-round 66. They’re 1-2 in first-round scoring average, so this isn’t a situation where either gets off to bad starts. This is just a matter of historical course setup favoring Schauffele, a putting advantage and the plus-money payout making me lean his way.I'm going to look past the Wyndham Championship for Im, who entered that tournament as the clear betting favorite.
Im finished T6 at TPC Southwind last season and while I think he can contend for a win, I'm very interested in betting against him in this matchup against Shane Lowry.
