Probability

Rory McIlroy currently holds 2nd in the FedExCup standings behind Scottie Scheffler. Scheffler is priced at +350 (22% implied), with McIlroy following at approximately +550 (~15%). East Lake suits McIlroy's profile (long driving, solid irons). With 30 players in the 2026 72-hole format (no staggered start), the base rate for a top-10 finish is 33%; McIlroy as #2 seed is weighted at ~1.5× → implied top-10 probability ~50%. Aggregated bookmaker odds imply ~52%. Fully compatible with the open prediction (Scheffler wins the Tour Championship).
