FedEx St. Jude Championship Pick to Win & Betting Odds: 2025 Playoffs Begin at TPC Southwind
Scottie Scheffler is listed as the +300 betting favorite to win at TPC Southwind in Memphis, Tenn., by the FedEx St. Jude Championship odds, with Rory McIlroy notably absent from the 69-man field, as the FedEx Cup Playoffs begin tomorrow.
Hideki Matsuyama (+3500 odds to win) returns as the defending champion of this event. Scheffler is the +200 favorite by the latest FedEx Cup odds as he seeks to defend last year's season-long title, and he holds a commanding lead in the FedEx Cup standings with 2,000 points available this week.
The 2025 FedEx St. Jude Championship begins tomorrow with the first tee time at 8:20 a.m. ET. The tournament runs through Sunday's final round.

Straka is a two-time winner this PGA Tour season with one third-place finish and three other top-10 results. He begins the playoffs third in the FedEx Cup standings.
He made his professional debut at TPC Southwind with a runner-up finish and a playoff loss three years ago. Though he finished outside of the top 60 each of the past two seasons, I'll trust his vastly improved 2025 form. He ranks third in this elite field with 0.98 strokes gained: approach per round this year, and he's one of the most accurate drivers in the field.

Scottie Scheffler odds to win 2025
π Best odds: +300 via BetMGM (bet $10 to win $30) | Implied win probability: 25%
Scheffler's FedEx St. Jude Championship odds of +300 represent an implied win probability of 25% in the 69-man field present at TPC Southwind this week. Those odds have increased ever so slightly since he opened at +280 to win via DraftKings on Monday morning. He is the PGA Tour's only two-time major winner this year, and he claimed two other victories this season to bring his career total to 17.
The No. 1 player in the Official World Golf Ranking (OWGR) had a career-best fourth-place finish at TPC Southwind last year. He previously hadn't finished better than 14th in six prior appearances at this venue. For that reason, I'll be staying away from these suppressed odds.
I'd suggest doubling down on any other pick to win the FedEx St. Jude Championship in the "winner without Scottie Scheffler" market once it opens later this week.
