Scottie Scheffler is a red-hot 9/4 favourite with Boyle Sports to get back to winning ways at the BMW Championship this week having narrowly missed out in the St Jude Championship last week.

The world number one will tee it up at Caves Valley in Maryland, which hosts the penultimate leg of the FedEx Cup Play-offs for the first time since 2021, when this year’s fourth favourite Patrick Cantlay (16/1) just fended off Bryson DeChambeau in a six-hole play-off.

Last year’s winner and the incumbent Team USA Ryder Cup captain Keegan Bradley is a 30/1 shot to record back-to-back titles, while Cameron Young, who followed up his Wyndham Championship victory with a fifth-place finish last week, is 18/1 to continue his fine run of form.

Rory McIlroy (6/1) is rated Scheffler’s biggest rival according to the oddsmakers who are predicting a prolonged clash between the top two golfers in the world with last year’s runner-up Ludvig Aberg heading the chasing pack at 14/1.

Brian O’Keeffe, spokesperson for BOYLE Sports, said: “The cream of this year’s tour will clash at this weekend’s BMW Championship but it’s the world number one, Scottie Scheffler, that punters are banking on taking another giant leap towards back-to-back FedEx Cups.”
