TPC Southwind, Memphis, Tennessee

Located in Memphis, Tennessee, TPC Southwind was designed by Ron Prichard in 1988, an architect and former pro known for his course renovations and classic style.

Southwind is home to the annual FedEx St. Jude Classic and a grueling 7,241 yards of professional golf. It is considered one of the more difficult courses on the PGA Tour. Harris English finished first with a $1 million purse in 2013, preceded by Dustin Johnson and Harrison Frazar with an impressive 13-under. The Classic has history dating back to 1958 when it was known as the Memphis Open and held at a nearby country club.

Hole 11, a 165 yard par-3, is a miniature version of TPC Sawgrass' infamous Island Green. Each hole was designed with the player in mind, though even pros are challenged by the seemingly simple architecture of TPC Southwind.

Free Picks For 2014 FedEx St. Jude Classic

PGABettingOdds.com's Winner Pick - Ryan Palmer carded a top-five finish at the FedEx St. Jude Classic last year on a course that fits his eye. Palmer has been playing well of late, with a T5 finish at the Crowne Plaza Invitational two weeks ago. He doesn't have a win yet this season, but does have two runner-up finishes, and five top-10s. A wager on Palmer is paying out 22/1 this week, a solid profit margin for one of the favorites.

Don't Be Surprised If... - Over the last couple of months, Kevin Stadler hasn't played as well as he would have liked. As a result, Stadler has been set all the way down at 66/1 to win this week, despite winning earlier this year in Phoenix. He finished T28 at Memorial last week and showed signs of improvement. Don't be surprised to see Stadler up there in contention this weekend.

2013 FedEx St. Jude Classic

Harris English won his first PGA Tour event at the 2013 FedEx St. Jude Classic, defeating Phil Mickelson and Scott Stallings by two shots. English was a great college player at the University of Georgia, which is not far from TPC Southwind. He had old friends cheering him on the entire week, ultimately coming away with the biggest win of his young career.

English made six birdies in his final round, but also carded five bogeys. It was a roller coaster ride coming in but he held off the rest of the field to pull it off. Four of his six birdies came on the back-nine, which was the boost he needed to get in the winner's circle. English won the FedEx St. Jude Classic in his first start at the event, becoming the fourth player to do so.

Harris English -12 (268)
Scott Stallings -10 (270)
Phil Mickelson -10 (270)
Ryan Palmer -9 (271)
Patrick Reed -8 (272)
