The PGA Tour makes its first official stop in Japan this week for the Zozo Championship. When the schedule was announced for the season, this event caught my eye the most. I’ve bet golf on the Japan Tour for years, but haven’t actually been able to see any events because it seems like no one…

ATLANTA — Whatever you think about the FedEx Cup — the system, the format, the scoring, the way we got here, any of it — it’s tough to argue with a leaderboard that’s given us Brooks Koepka leading by a stroke over Rory McIlroy and Justin Thomas entering the weekend. Saturday’s third round should be…

ATLANTA — What a difference one day can make. At the start of Thursday’s opening round of the Tour Championship, one player led by two strokes, two others were within three of the lead, and five were separated by five shots. By the end of the day, three players were tied for the lead, four…

The 2018-19 PGA Tour Season comes to an end on Sunday with the conclusion of the Tour Championship. Thirty golfers remain in the hunt for the 2019 FedEx Cup and for the first time, the winner of the Tour Championship at East Lake will automatically win the FedEx Cup and the $15 million that comes…

Look, I’m not a big fan of the staggered scoring format for this week’s finale, in which Justin Thomas starts at 10-under and every other…

After a few weeks of topping the buzz charts, Justin Thomas finally came through with a victory at the 2019 BMW Championship. JT’s long-awaited victory vaulted him to the top of the FedEx Cup standings and he is now the betting favorite and most-expensive DFS golfer at this weekend’s Tour Championship. Course history narratives are…

With the PGA Tour season wrapping up this week, my focus has started to shift overseas as the European Tour schedule starts to pick up. I’m not really seeing a whole lot of value with the Tour Championship at the moment. My only action will be a FedEx Cup future I have on Jon Rahm…

ATLANTA — Justin Thomas is fresh off a victory at the BMW Championship, already leads this week without hitting a single shot and is the obvious favorite to end the season with back-to-back titles. There’s more to like about his Tour Championship chances, too: As I wrote in this piece, Thomas has been nearly unbeatable…
