FedEx St. Jude Championship payouts and points: Lucas Glover earns $3.6 million and 2000 FedExCup points
2 Min Read
It’s fair to ask which is more surprising – Lucas Glover’s absurd and impressive reversal with his putting or the fact that he was +6600 at BetMGM to win the FedEx St. Jude Championship, which is what he did in a playoff over Patrick Cantlay.
Objectively, unequivocally and categorically, the answer is yes.
The only thing hotter than the conditions at TPC Southwind was Glover’s funky flat stick. Without par saves outside 20 feet and 11 feet at the par-4 13th and 17th holes sandwiching a bogey conversion from outside 29 feet at the par-3 14th on his final nine alone, Glover likely fades into the field of 50 for the BMW Championship. Instead, he’s now fourth in the FedExCup on the broad shoulders of consecutive victories. With pre-tournament odds of +8000 to win the Wyndham Championship last week, he won by two.
Glover’s haul in the first leg of the FedExCup Playoffs is 2,000 FedExCup points and $3.6 million. Points are quadrupled in the series and the prize fund at the FedEx St. Jude was $20 million.
Cantlay was +1600 to prevail, and he was but the fourth-shortest in the field of 70 in Memphis.
As has been the trend, Scottie Scheffler was shortest at +650 before he checked up in a six-way T31. Rory McIlroy (T3) and Jon Rahm (T37) shared second-shortest odds at +900.
Elsewhere, in his first start as The Open champion, Brian Harman (+4500) was among those sharing 31st place. Lee Hodges (+9000) also was making his first appearance since breaking through at the 3M Open. He was yet another at T31.
