Cappers Picks Golf handicappers<\/a> have all your latest golf news and information so be sure to make us your trusted source for up-to-the-minute golf details. PGA Golf betting<\/strong><\/a> fans will also have plenty golf action to focus on as this year\u2019s Fed Ex Cup Championship is here. <\/p>\n LAST WEEK<\/strong>: Matt Kuchar was somewhat in the hunt at the BMW Championship before a 78 on Saturday derailed his tournament. So much for that pick. But we get one last shot at glory with the PGA\u2019s final playoff event arriving this week.<\/p>\n The field narrows to a prestigious 30 golfers at the Tour Championship by Coca-Cola this week. The host course, East Lake, may play easier than normal this year, as a dry summer has taken a lot of hold out of the rough. The golfers who can hit greens consistently and make birdies are the guys to target this week.<\/p>\n Date: Sep. 22 – 25 THE ELITE<\/strong><\/p>\n Luke Donald<\/strong> It isn\u2019t always fun to pick the golfer who gives you the smallest return but Donald makes a compelling case. He\u2019s second on Tour in putting, fresh off a fourth-place finish at the BMW and finished second at East Lake last season. Donald has played as well as any golfer this season, so a win would cap his year perfectly.<\/p>\n THE CONTENDERS<\/strong><\/p>\n Webb Simpson <\/strong> Currently the FedEx Cup points leader, Webb Simpson would probably lock up Player of the Year honors as well if he won this week. He\u2019s riding four straight top-10s finishes and is 10th<\/sup> on Tour in greens in regulation. He\u2019s a first-timer at East Lake, however.<\/p>\n Adam Scott <\/strong> Scott is trending well for East Lake, having ranked seventh or better in both fairways and greens hit last week. He won the Tour Championship in 2008 but hasn\u2019t posted a top-25 since, so he\u2019s somewhat of a wild card.<\/p>\n Nick Watney <\/strong> Watney is a respectable 34th<\/sup> on Tour in GIR \u2013 but it\u2019s his performance last season at East Lake that really makes him intriguing. He finished fourth last season, tying for the lead among the field in greens hit. During one 18-hole stretch, he was 12-under par. He clearly knows how to score low at this course.<\/p>\n Jason Day <\/strong> Some bettors may like that Day scores better than any golfer on Tour on par-3s this season. But he\u2019s inaccurate off the tee. Considering the abundance of great picks available this week, we don\u2019t have to take a chance on a guy who doesn\u2019t always put the ball in the fairway.<\/p>\n SOLID PICK<\/strong><\/p>\n Justin Rose<\/strong> If you like riding the hot hand, Rose is clearly your guy this week. He won the BMW Championship last week convincingly, ranking fifth or better in fairways, GIR and putting. If he keeps that up at East Lake, he\u2019ll be tough to beat.
