Williams uses PRP therapy to resolve hamstring issue
Jordan Williams hopes his hamstring problems are behind him after enduring an injury-blighted first season at Fratton 25-year-old right-back moved to Portsmouth last summer after leaving Barnsley but three separate hamstring injuries restricted him to just 20 Championship appearances in his first missed eight games with a hamstring tear either side of Christmas and after just three games back, suffered another which ruled him out of the next 10 returned to make four starts in April but missed out on the final two matches after limping off with a third hamstring injury in the win over Watford on 21 April, after which he underwent platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatment to tackle the starting Pompey's opening two matches of the new season, Williams told BBC Radio Solent: "It's good to be back, hopefully the injuries are behind me and I can keep playing football and enjoying it."Explaining the PRP procedure, he said: "You can't feel the benefit of it but you can visualise it as gluing it back together basically and, touch wood, so far it's felt alright and hopefully it can carry on."It's taking the good blood cells out of your blood, spinning them and putting them back into the muscle or the tendon that's been injured. It acts like a bit of a gel to put them back together and make them stronger."It repairs fully anyway, naturally, without even having that, but that's meant to make it even stronger so we went down that route and hopefully it has done that so far."Click here for more from Jordan Williams' interview with BBC Radio Solent, including a look ahead to the clash with West Brom, via BBC Sounds.

Check out the latest free bets and the UK's best betting sites Course overview Every FedExCup from 2007 onwards has been played at East Lake, but the course was remodelled ahead of last year's tournament and there will be further differences this time around compared with 12 months ago. Hole locations can be made trickier, different tees can be used and rough will be longer. Most obviously, the 14th hole – with the tee moved up – reverts to a par 4 after playing as a par 5 in 2024, reducing the course to a par 70. Also, on the left side of the 8th hole, the lake to the left of the green looms as a bigger danger, and there has been a small fairway reduction on the 17th. The greens will be more receptive to approach shots than the new hard surfaces of last season. But short grass and steep banks can send errant shots away from the putting surface. In short, East Lake will be more of a challenge now. The course already favoured driving accuracy and will do so even more this time, with precise approach play also key. Best way of siding with Scheffler Scottie Scheffler will probably win this tournament again. He does not have the head start he had when taking last year's event, when surviving a bit of a wobble, but he is better now than he has ever been. The world No 1 went a combined 30 under for the first two FedExCup play-off events, five better than his nearest rival Tommy Fleetwood (more on him shortly). Scheffler can be backed at 17/10 win only, which is tempting, but slight odds on for a top-two finish, which offers a safety net, is more tempting. Bet 1: Top-two finish – 2pts Scottie Scheffler @ 5/6 with bet365 Take two 'without' great Scottie While Fleetwood seems to have a mental block when it comes to winning on the PGA Tour – he threw away leads in the Travelers Championship in June and the FedEx St Jude earlier this month – he is playing really well. The Englishman has made the top four on his previous three starts in the US and was clear second best behind Scheffler over the first two play-off events combined. This course suits him better than Caves Valley, where he finished fourth in last week's BMW Championship. Fleetwood cannot be trusted to get the win, but he looks a good each-way option without Scheffler. JJ Spaun is tempting in the same market. The American has had a breakout year, finishing second in the Players' Championship, winning the US Open and finishing second (lost out in a play-off) in the FedEx St Jude. He struggled in last week's BMW, but this course is a better fit for him. Bet 2: Betting without Scottie Scheffler – 1pt each-way Tommy Fleetwood @ 8/1 with bet365 (¼ odds; four places) Bet 3: Betting without Scottie Scheffler – 0.5pt each-way JJ Spaun @ 20/1 with bet365 (¼ odds; four places) Match bet double On a course that will reward accurate driving, Russell Henley should be comfortably superior to Justin Thomas over 72 holes, with the latter's game being nowhere near up to scratch at the moment. Spaun also stands out against Hideki Matsuyama in a four-round match bet, so the double makes for a tempting play. Bet 4: 72-hole match bets – 1pt double Russell Henley (vs Justin Thomas) and JJ Spaun (vs Hideki Matsuyama) @ 2.05/1 with bet365 What about Rory? Master champion Rory McIlroy just does not seem fully motivated at the moment. He sat out the FedEx St Jude and was tied 12th in last week's BMW Championship. The Northern Irishman is coming in fresher than most, and maybe it was the plan all along to peak for this week. He has excelled around East Lake in the past. However, the changes to the course do not help him – he was off the pace in this event last year – and there look to be better betting options than this mercurial talent. Tour Championship – bet365 outright odds (Each-way ¼ odds, four places; alternative prices and place terms also available) 13/8 Scottie Scheffler 7/1 Rory McIlroy 12/1 Tommy Fleetwood 16/1 Ludvig Aberg 18/1 Russell Henley 22/1 Viktor Hovland 25/1 Patrick Cantlay 25/1 Sam Burns 28/1 Cameron Young 28/1 Collin Morikawa 28/1 Justin Thomas 33/1 bar (odds correct at time of writing) What is the Tour Championship? All year long the world's top golfers on the PGA Tour have been earning FedExCup points. After the regular season, the top 70 players in the standings took part in the FedEx St Jude Championship, which was won by Justin Rose in a play-off. The top 50 then moved on to the BMW Championship, which went the way of world No 1 Scottie Scheffler. Now the top 30 have progressed to the Tour Championship, the culmination of the PGA Tour season. Previously, the player with the most FedEx Cup points leading into this tournament started at 10 under, the player with the second most points 8 under, and so on. But this time, everyone starts at level par and the winner of the Tour Championship takes home the FedExCup. There is no halfway cut in this event.
