McIlroy perfectly poised to become $10m man
Victory in the Tour Championship in Atlanta will earn him $1.4m (€1.06m) and even that sum will pale in comparison with the $10m (€7.6m) bonus he will secure if he tops the FedEx Cup series.
The bookmakers make the 23-year-old Hollywood wonder boy, who has accumulated close to $10m (€7.6m) from on-course activities this year, a 4/1 favourite, one point ahead of Tiger Woods.
