Scottie Scheffler will have at least a two-stroke head start on everybody else in the field when the FedEx Cup Tour Championship gets underway Thursday at East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta. For Scheffler, this means he has the best chance in the 30-man field of winning the $18 million bonus that serves as the first prize. For golf bettors, this means you’ll get a head start at winning if you use one or more of the Tour Championship betting promos & bonuses that will be detailed shortly.
Scheffler, for the record, will start at 10-under-par when the 72-hole event begins. It’s the second year in a row he has entered the Tour Championship as the top seed. His closest pursuers initially will be Viktor Hovland, who shot a final-round 61 to capture last week’s BMW Championship, and defending-champion Rory McIlroy. Hovland will start at 8-under while McIlroy will be at 7-under.
The seeds are determined by the number of FedEx Cup points earned throughout this season. Here’s the rest of the top 10: Masters champ Jon Rahm (-6), Lucas Glover (-5), Max Homa (-4), Patrick Cantlay (-4), British Open champ Brian Harman (-4), U.S. Open champ Wyndham Clark (-4) and Matthew Fitzpatrick (-4).
There’s a grand total of $75 million in bonuses available this week. Second place earns $6.5 million, and the bonus goes down slightly for each place. The 10th-place finisher will be the last one to earn a $1 million bonus while the last-place finisher will be consoled with a $500,000 bonus.
It’s the grand finale of the PGA Tour season, the country’s top online sportsbooks are handing out some outstanding Tour Championship betting promos & bonuses. Before you place any wagers on this week’s tournament, make sure you know what’s possible for new customers.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3003″ ]
Ready to tee off on some terrific Tour Championship betting promos & bonuses? If you create a BetMGM account with the BetMGM bonus code SBWIRE, you earn a first-bet offer up to $1,000.
With this offer, BetMGM promises to have your back on your first bet when it’s anywhere from $10 to $1,000. If you win your first bet, then your wallet gets fatter. But if your first bet falters, don’t fret because BetMGM will returns the amount of your first bet to your account as bonus bets.
Here’s how the bonus bets work: If your first bet was in the $50 to $,1000 range, then you’ll get five bonus bets – each worth 20 percent of your original wager. If your first bet was for less than $50, then you’ll get one bonus bet that matches your original wager.
BetMGM features a 1X playthrough requirement. Therefore, to turn a bonus bet into cash, it needs to win just one time. If/when that happens, then you pocket the profit in cash.

As with the rest of the best Tour Championship promos & bonuses mentioned in this story, the Caesars Sportsbook promo code SBWIREGET follows the 1X playthrough requirement. Each time a bonus bet wins, you collect the profit in cash.

DraftKings is trotting out a new offer this week, too. If you register for a DraftKings account with the DraftKings promo code and place a $5 first bet, then you’ll receive $200 in bonus bets instantly.
Those $200 in bonus bets are guaranteed regardless of whether your $5 first bet wins. You’ll see your bonus bets show up in your account as eight $25 bets — and you’ll have seven days to play them. Each time a bonus bet wins, you win cash.
FanDuel Tour Championship Betting Promo Code
[gambcom-standard rankid=”3006″ ]
FanDuel has trotted out a new offer this week with a football twist. If you start a new FanDuel account with the FanDuel promo code and place a $5 first bet, then you’ll receive $200 in bonus bets and a $100 discount on an NFL Sunday Ticket subscription.
Here’s the order of events: You sign up and play your $5 first bet. Within 72 hours of that placement, you’ll get the $200 in bonus bets as well as an email with your $100 discount on NFL Sunday Ticket. You receive these goodies no matter how your first bet did.
Once the bonus bets hit your account, you’ll have seven days to play them and you can spread them out across as many bets as you want to make. Each time a bonus bet hits, then you claim the profit in cash.
As for the NFL Sunday Ticket discount, you’ll have until Sept. 20 to pull the trigger. But the season starts Sept. 7, so we’re sure you’ll want to use it sooner than that.
BetRivers Tour Championship Betting Promo Code
[gambcom-standard rankid=”3008″ ]
We have one more offer on our list of Tour Championship betting promos & bonuses. When you create a BetRivers account with the BetRivers promo code, you’re entitled to a 2nd Chance Bet worth up to $500 (the exact amount depends on which state you’re in when you create your account).
Obviously, it’s great news if you win your first bet. But if your first bet goes in the water, BetRivers grants you a mulligan by sending the amount of your first bet back to your account as one site credit. You’ll have 30 days to use it.
You’re allowed to play your site credit on any of the many sports you’ll find on the BetRivers website or app. However, there’s one consideration to keep in mind: You must play your site credit on an event with odds of -200 or better (meaning -100 or -150 or -199 are just fine). Your site-credit bet needs to win just once for you to collect the profit in cash.
