The top 125 in the Fed Ex Points Standings go into the first round of the Barclays Play-Off at Ridgewood Country Club in what should be an enthralling tournament, with those at the bottom end of the points table desperately attempting to get themselves into the top 100. Failure to do so will mean that they will not make the cut for the second Fed Ex Play-off event, the Deutsche Bank Championship in a couple of week’s time. Joint Favourite to win this week is World Number 2, Phil Mickelson, with best price odds of 12/1 available from Bet365.

With one win and five top ten finishes this year, Mickelson currently stands in 4th place in the Fed Ex standings, behind top man, Ernie Els, Steve Stricker in 2nd and Jim Furyk in 3rd.

The Barclays Golf Tournament Odds Comparison.

Tiger Woods, having now completed his divorce is also at 12/1 but he is way down the FedEx points table at the moment in 112th place and will need a big performance this week to get into the top 100; it is Interesting to note that Tiger has never won this event.

The third of the joint favourites is Britain’s, Rory McIlroy, currently 21 in the Fed Ex points table and ranked 7th in the world. McIlroy has been in great form lately with four top ten finishes in his last five events, including a tie for 3rd place in both the British Open and PGA Championship. He will be the choice of many to win this week and at 12/1 with bet365 he looks a sound selection and would also be our tip to win this week.

Defending champion is heath Slocum, who was 124th in the FedEx standings at the time, but the win qualified him through to the final. His season has not been full of highlights this season so far, but there has been signs that he is approaching the sort of form necessary to acquit himself well. He loves the course and he might well be good each way value with odds of 125/1 with Bet365.

England’s Paul Casey is one player who would love to do well this week, after being knocked off the list for automatic selection for the European Ryder Cup team. A good performance this week, should see him earn himself a Captain’s Pick’ with the same maxim being applied to Irishman, Padraig Harrington, who is also dependent on a ‘Captain’s Pick’ . Casey is a 30/1 chance while Harrington can be backed at 33/1, both with Bet365.com.
