If we were trying to make our way into the top 100 in the FedEx Cup standings, we would have accomplished our goal. We had a runner-up in Utah, four and eight locals in Cabo San Lucas, and three local chefs last week in Bermuda. While our 2026 travel card will certainly be secure, it is paid for by the fake winner who just stays empty without our access.

On St Simons Island and “Glory’s Last Shot.”

The RSM Classic on Sea Island is the last stop of the FedEx Cup Fall and the last chance for players to secure the top spot for 2026.

These are two difficult situations to hold hands. Do we want to get to a player who is on the bubble all the way to the Top 100, to find that they will have more motivation to play well this week? Or is that too much pressure to deal with? Can One just “Flip a switch” and suddenly play at a higher level because of what is at stake? For the locals, is this just a few days of regular golf, close to home, in terms of the course they are familiar with?

Personally, I didn’t pay much attention to any of these situations. I’m lucky enough to have played the beach course at Sea Island a few years ago and felt that it was taken here, even if it was a residential area. It is a short course, par 70, with just a hair of 7,000 yards. Three rounds will be played on this side while one round for each player on Thursday or Friday will take place on the plant course, the easier of the two, the shorter of 72, inland, is overland.

The main defense here is the storm that usually kicks up the Atlantic coast but the forecast this week doesn’t call for anything over 10 mph on any of the four days. Golf oddsmaker, Jeff Sherman, at the Westgate SuperBook in Las Vegas has set the winning score proposition bet at Under/Over 260.5, meaning 21.5 under par.

In terms of Skill Set, this is all about finding the right place on these wide roads, setting a good angle to approach these sectors that are larger than the middle, and Horing other ends of the bird bird’s fall. How to play from 100-175 Wards will be key. Accuracy off the tee, getting into the wind from this distance, and scoring on the 12 par 4s will be very important, in my opinion.

I feel the connection through integrated studies is strong this week. Bermuda-based, short, coastal. Lessons where Trumps accuracy ranges, hits the greens in the rules, and negotiates possible windy conditions. We often see a lot of the same words appearing on the leaderboards across these courses. Specifically, I looked at Sedgefield Country Club (Wyndham Championship), Waialae CC (Sony Open), Colonial CC (Charles Schwab Challenge), Harbor Town (RBC Heritage), Port Royal (Bermuda Championship), and Pebble Beach.

Here’s to those golf gods who shined upon us this week and found the winner among the many recent calls. I stayed away from any favorites this week as 50-1 is the shortest price I played.

Nico e Chavarria (50-1)

Already a 2-time winner visiting in his young career, eChavarria is one of the best papers in the field and has an open runner-up at Sony in the island near all the figures I looked at and here in 24 lines in the lines found. In his last two events, he finished 14th and ninth.

Seamus Power (65-1)

The Irishman is one of those players currently looking out of 130 at the FedEx Cup limits. He has made seven consecutive cuts and finished 11th last week in Bermuda, the tournament he won in 2022. I like Power’s top game as he approaches the hole 100-150 yards. He’s finished in the top-5 here twice, had a high, a high at Colonial City, and sixth and 12th at the Harbor, and ninth, 15th, and 17th at Pebble Beach.

Mac Meissner (70-1)

It’s been a great run for the young player from nearby Charleston, SC, as he hasn’t missed the cut since July. Meanwhile, he completed a run at the Wyndham Championship back in August and was 12 here in 2024. He is also the owner of the fifth open colony and 21. His lifting game is very nice, he is ranked sixth in this field of SG: Close to the last 24 edges, greens in the lines in the direction found, and he is fifth in the hole close to 125-150.

Stephan Jaeger (100-1)

Maybe it’s a coastal connection because otherwise there’s a lot of similarities between Sea Island on the island and Torrey Pines in La Jolla, Calif. But the final RSM Abergor and Ludvig Abergo, finished 2-1 respectively at Torrey. Jaeger is another guy who has done really well at Torrey Pines – and he’s done that on some of the other courses this week. He was 30 here on the island twice, Top 20 at Harbor Town and Bermuda, Pop 15 at Wyndham, and was past SG Actimity from 100-175.

Chris Ventura (100-1)

Sitting at 121st in the standings, Ventura is another player charging hard for that top 100 line. He has finished 21-11-37-34 in his last four FedEx Cup Fall events and was fourth earlier this season at Torrey Pines. He makes a bunch of birdies, he hits the greens, it’s the best thing, and he ranks in the top-45 in the field for the approach of the hole from 100-175. Ventura finished 16th in the league back in May of this season.

Lee Hodges (105-1)

A player in Alabama, Hodges is familiar with golf in this part of the country and with bermudagrass. He is also on the verge of the FedEx Cup standings, the 103rd position coming to this event. He finished fifth here last year and was 12th at Charles Schwab in 2024. Earlier this season, Hodges finished in the top 10. Very accurate off the tee, hitting greens in fairway and on the last 7, Hodges tops 25 in this hole approach range from 100-175.
