It was a good week for FedEx Cup champion Jordan Spieth and European Open winner Thongchai Jaidee.

Let's start the Fantasy Golf round-up by giving you the bonus code for this week, allowing you one extra transfer: - 81llHaas - valid until 23:59 on Wednesday

 

Think of an attribute the perfect golfer has. Chances are Jordan Spieth can lay claim to it. Golf's latest phenom has won two majors this year and capped it off on Sunday with the FedEx Cup.

The Texan is now also the world no.1 after Jason Day and Rory McIlroy took turns at sitting atop the world rankings in the last month.

Spieth's win meant he took 405 points in Fantasy Golf this week, but not everything revolved around golf's young stars. Thongchai Jaidee won the Porsche European Open to reach seven career European Tour wins.

Jaidee has been a solid player out on Tour and demonstrated his quality in Germany with a bogey-free final round on Sunday.

 

Overall

Boddington has a narrow lead over Popcorn in the league standings. The gap is now just over 200 points, with Monty Majors over 1,000 back in third.
