2024 The RSM Classic Tournament preview
The The RSM Classic is this week, and the PGA Tour concludes the FedEx Cup Fall with a trip to coastal Georgia. Sea Island is a great property, with the two courses very scorable when there's not wind to defend them.
2024 The RSM Classic Tournament rankings: Top 10 players
1. Austin Eckroat: Eckroat is a two-time winner this year and winner this fall, so why not again?
2. Matt McCarty: McCarty won in Utah coming fresh off the Korn Ferry Tour, and there's little reason to believe he can't keep it going.
3. Denny McCarthy: Denny has taken the fall off, as he should, but he has enjoyed several close calls here.
4. Ludvig Aberg: Ludvig is coming off injury and surgery, so it's unclear what he actually has in terms of ring rust.
5. Lucas Glover: He ran backwards on Sunday with a 6-over final round in Bermuda, but he's been great all throughout his fall starts.
6. J.T. Poston: The Postman is already a winner this fall and might have some Nappy Factor going for him.
7. Brian Harman: Harman hasn't played since a 25th-place finish at the BMW Championship, but he's a top-tier player in the field.
8. Chris Kirk: Kirk did well enough in his one fall start in Utah, but he should be someone to consider this week.
9. Sepp Straka: Straka has been active in the fall, though not on the PGA Tour. He's played OK on the DP World Tour in his fall starts.
10. Greyson Sigg: This is more of a flier ranking, but Sigg has played some of his best PGA Tour golf this fall, and he has strong finishes in this specific event.
