📉 Betting recap: Previous picks down 4.7 units; highlights include Chris Kirk’s T5 and Ben Griffin’s T11, but misfires on Kevin Kisner and Lucas Glover.

🌡 Conditions & scoring: Memphis heat expected; predicted winning score at -17.

  • (0:15 - 0:28) Will Doctor opens with enthusiasm for the FedEx St. Jude Championship and promises sharp analysis for bettors and fans.

  • (0:38 - 32:16) Will Doctor reviews Cameron Young’s historic Wyndham win, emphasizing his 10+ strokes gained putting and contextualizing it as one of the most dominant putting performances of the season. He highlights its impact on Ryder Cup standings, placing Young 15th and pressuring others like Bradley, Morikawa, and McNeely.

  • Will critiques Colin Morikawa’s inconsistency (fifth caddie this season, limited top finishes) and defends Keegan Bradley’s Ryder Cup spot, pointing to his two wins in 25 starts and 4-3 Ryder Cup record.

  • The discussion shifts to Brian Harman, who sits 12th in Ryder Cup points with strong finishes (T10 at The Open, win in San Antonio) and historical success at Southwind, making him a likely selection barring poor play.

  • Will criticizes Rory McIlroy for skipping the playoff opener, calling it “pathetic” given the $25M prize pool and FedEx’s role as the tour’s biggest sponsor.

  • He provides course analysis for TPC Southwind, noting narrow fairways, water hazards, and firm Bermuda greens that favor high-trajectory iron players and elite short-game specialists.

  • Scotty Scheffler is identified as the primary outright pick (+315), with Will predicting his fifth win of the season due to his exceptional ball striking and recently improved putting.

  • Additional picks: Xander Schauffele top 10 (+125) for his consistency at Southwind and Jacob Bridgman over Aldridge Potgieter (-175) based on Bridgman’s accuracy and putting edge.

  • Harris English emerges as the sleeper top 10 pick (+300), supported by his FedEx ranking (7th), Ryder Cup standing (6th), and history at Southwind (win in 2013, T4 in 2021).

  • DFS lineups are outlined, with Scheffler as captain, alongside Matsuyama, Fitzpatrick, English, and value plays like Chris Kirk and Joe Highsmith.
