The lowest pre-tournament odds for a single golfer to win a PGA Tour event were likely for Tiger Woods, who was listed as even-money -125 to win the 2009 Tour Championship. Other examples of extremely low odds include Scottie Scheffler's +250 odds at the 2024 Houston Open, and Jon Rahm at +380 for the 2023 Mexican open.



BTW Tiger finished 2nd behind Phil.

I think Tiger won Tank unless I’m looking at the wrong tourney. Shot 62 in the third round

Tiger won the Fedex. Phil the 2009 Tour Championship.

From ChatGPT:

Phil Mickelson won the 2009 Tour Championship, but Tiger Woods won the FedEx Cup that year, securing the $10 million prize. Mickelson shot a 5-under-par 65 in the final round to overtake the lead and secure the tournament victory by three shots. Woods' second-place finish in the tournament was enough to win the season-long FedEx Cup.

Tour Championship winner: Phil Mickelson

FedEx Cup winner: Tiger Woods

Tournament Location: East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta


Tournament outcome: Mickelson birdied his last two holes to secure his win. Woods birdied the 15th and 16th holes to secure second place in the tournament, which was enough for him to clinch the FedEx Cup title and its $10 million prize.
