2024 Tour Championship Odds & Picks: Ben An

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 Ben An.

Ben An Tour Championship Course History

Welcome to the show, Ben An. The South Korean is making his first appearance in this event after making it to the BMW Championship five times. An will start at -2 after finishing Sunday in 16th place in the FedEx Cup standings. The former Cal Golden Bear will need to find some magic on the greens if he’s going to contend based on the fact that he’s ranked 100th on tour in putting this season.

Ben An Recent Form

Despite a May/June swoon with a pair of missed cuts sandwiched around a WD, the 32-year-old An has five top-10s on the season and four straight top-35 finishes coming into East Lake. An was consistently average last week on the scoreboard, which is odd considering that he was top ten in strokes gained: off the tee and strokes gained: putting. It seems like the altitude at Castle Pines made it extremely difficult for An to adjust his yardage on approach shots. That’s something he won’t have to deal with in Atlanta, so there’s hope he can put it all together.

Ben An 2024 Tour Championship Betting Outlook

Starting eight shots behind the best player in the world is a tough ask. For An, a first-timer in the Tour Championship, it seems impossible. If you’re a fan and hoping for lightning in a bottle, I won’t fight you if you need to back him. But don’t lean heavily on An to finish anywhere in the top 20 or better.
