In a reshuffled Tour Championship format - mainly in response to Tiger winning without winning last year - the 2019 rendition of the Fedex Cup finale started in a handicap format. It left the market looking a bit like one after a day or two of play.

With the reduced field of 30 we also had fewer golfer to follow / oppose - and just the one headline tip.

As it was - McIlroy stormed to an emphatic 4 shot victory, scooping a cool $15m for himself, and a fourth winning tip in five weeks for our Golf tipster.
