<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-jdc-offers-opportunity">JDC Offers Opportunity&nbsp;</h2>



<p>With the lack of star power this week, the JDC offers an opportunity for players sitting outside the top 100 in the FedEx Cup standings to make a move to solidify their Tour status for next season. With just five regular-season events remaining until the playoffs, it is important for players on the outside looking in to stack as many points as possible over the next month.</p>



<p>The JDC has been a springboard for some players, setting the stage for first-time victories for players like Jordan Spieth and Bryson DeChambeau. Both Spieth and DeChambeau would go on to be major tournament winners.</p>

<p>The betting odds are wide open without the elite talent in the field. Denny McCarthy and Russell Henley (+1600) are tied atop the leaderboard as the betting favorites coming into the week.&nbsp;</p>



<p>McCarthy has put together a solid season, coming in ranked 24th in the FedEx Cup standings as he aims for his first career victory. In 24 events, the 30-year-old has twelve top-25 finishes, including five top-10s.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Henley won in the fall at the World Wide Technology Championship and hopes to add his second victory of the season. Since the win, Henley’s best finish was a T4 at the Masters in April.</p>



<p>Cameron Young (+1800) is next in line after the two favorites. Young has made 15 of 17 cuts this year with his best finish a runner-up at the WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play event. Since a T7 at Augusta, Young’s best finish was a T32 at the U.S. Open.</p>



<p>Rookie Ludvig Aberg (+2200) is right in the mix of betting favorites this week. The former Texas Tech standout has played in five PGA Tour events this year, three as a pro, making the cut in all five. His best finish was T24 at both the Arnold Palmer Invitational and Travelers Championship.</p>



<p>Adam Hadwin, Emiliano Grillo, and Eric Cole round out the betting favorites at +2800. Hadwin lost to Rickie Fowler last week in a playoff at the Rocket Mortgage Classic, while Grillo was runner-up here last season. Cole has three top-10 finishes in 26 events played in his first full season on the PGA Tour.</p>
