It's time for the FedEx Cup Playoffs.

Scottie Scheffler is the favorite to win with +650 odds at BetMGM. The No. 1 ranked player in the world is receiving some sharp action as he accounts for 8% of the tickets and 13.1% of the handle (the most in the field).

Collin Morikawa is BetMGM's biggest liability. He opened at +2500 and is down to +2200. Morikawa is getting 6% of the bets and accounts for 8.9% of the handle.

The second biggest liability for BetMGM is Sam Burns. He's garnering 5.5% of the bets and 5.2% of the money at +3300 odds. He opened at +4000.

Jon Rahm is also seeing a significant amount of action at BetMGM. The No. 3 ranked player in the world is getting the most tickets (8.1%) and accounts for 11.7% of the handle. He is BetMGM's third-largest liability.

Rory McIlroy is also getting some action — 6.3% of the bets and 5.7% of the handle.

One of the sneakier sharp plays this week is Cameron Young. He has +4000 odds to win the first playoff event and is getting 2.8% of the bets with 5.1% of the handle.
