Well, online sports betting<\/a> fans, it’s almost time to say goodbye to meaningful golf in 2009. The Tour Championship is the last FedEx Cup playoff event of the year and it starts Thursday. Here are some intriguing names to consider this week. <\/o:p><\/span><\/font><\/p>\n

Tiger Woods<\/span><\/font><\/b> <\/o:p><\/p>\n

Tour Championship odds<\/a>: +125 <\/o:p><\/span><\/font><\/p>\n

Tiger’s +125 odds to win are high even by his standards, They’re<\/span> justified however, as he’s fresh off a landslide victory at the BMW Championship. It’s pretty amazing that he has six wins in what many are calling an off year for him simply because he didn’t win a major. Sports picks<\/a> don’t come safer than him this week; when a guy fresh off a win plays at a course on which he won two years ago and leads the Tour in scoring average and par breakers, you bet on him. <\/o:p><\/span><\/font><\/p>\n

Padraig Harrington <\/span><\/font><\/b><\/o:p><\/p>\n

Tour Championship odds: +1415 <\/o:p><\/span><\/font><\/p>\n

Maybe 2009 isn’t a total write-off for Harrington after all. He finished 15 straight tournaments outside the top 10 to start the year only to heat up at crunch time; he has five straight top-10 finishes now. With his swing fixed and his scrambling helping him stay consistent, he’ll probably contend again. However, he still has to conquer his bizarre Sunday hiccups. <\/o:p><\/span><\/font><\/p>\n

Sean O’Hair<\/span> <\/span><\/font><\/b><\/o:p><\/p>\n

Tour Championship odds: +2050 <\/o:p><\/span><\/font><\/p>\n

Hardly a household name, O’Hair<\/span> is a guy to remember this week. He’s shown he can hang with the big boys in the FedEx Cup, posting consecutive top-10s. The host course, <\/span><\/font>East<\/st1:PlaceName> Lake<\/st1:PlaceType><\/st1:place>, has thick rough, so accurate ball strikers should fare well. O’Hair<\/span> is no exception; he hit 32 straight greens during one hot stretch this year. <\/o:p><\/p>\n

Mike Weir <\/span><\/font><\/b><\/o:p><\/p>\n

Tour Championship odds: +5250 <\/o:p><\/span><\/font><\/p>\n

Weir may be the best sleeper pick this week since he can match O’Hair’s<\/span> accuracy yet offers much better sportsbook value. He finished sixth at <\/span><\/font>East<\/st1:PlaceName> Lake<\/st1:PlaceType><\/st1:place> last year, so seeing him contend again wouldn’t be a huge surprise. <\/o:p><\/p>\n
