2024 Tour Championship Odds & Picks: Akshay Bhatia

by |

The PGA Tour season comes to an end this week with the Tour Championship at the East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta.

It's the final event of the three-event FedEx Cup Playoffs. At stake: the honor of being the FedEx Cup champion and a whole lot of money. The winner of the Tour Championship receives $25 million and a five-year PGA Tour exemption. Second place is worth $12.5 million. Every player in the 30-man field will earn at least $550,000.

The Tour Championship uses a unique "starting strokes" system that rewards players based on the number of FedEx Cup points accumulated so far this season. FedEx Cup points leader Scottie Scheffler will start at -10. No. 2 player Xander Schauffele starts at -8, No. 3 Hideki Matsuyama starts at -7, No. 4 Keegan Bradley starts at -6, and No. 5 Ludvig Aberg starts at -5. The rest of the field is sorted into groups of five, with groups starting at -4, -3, -2, -1 and even par. Bear in mind that betting odds for the Tour Championship take the starting strokes system into account.

Let's take a closer look at our top 2024 Tour Championship odds and picks for Akshay Bhatia.

Akshay Bhatia Tour Championship Course History

The fifth-youngest golfer to win twice on the PGA Tour, Bhatia now gets his first taste of the Tour Championship. This will be a great learning experience for the youngster, and if he has the “just happy to be here” attitude all week, no one would blame him. But to get here, you have to be an incredible and consistent golfer, and Bhatia is exactly that.

Akshay Bhatia Recent Form

The Wake Forest product had more missed cuts than top-five finishes in 2024. But he also won the Valero Texas Open and narrowly missed out on the Rocket Mortgage classic title. Since then, it’s been a bit of a rough go for the 22-year-old, with two of those missed cuts and just one top-15 finish in his last five events.

Akshay Bhatia 2024 Tour Championship Betting Outlook

Move on. Bhatia starts eight back and is gaining valuable experience for later in his career, but now is not the time to put your hard-earned money on him. Keep an eye on Bhatia in 2025 and beyond, but for this week he is a hard pass.
