FedEx St. Jude Championship, Round 2: How to watch, featured groups, live scores, TV and tee times
2 Min Read
The first of three FedExCup Playoffs events has arrived, with the top 70 in the FedExCup standings heading to Memphis for the FedEx St. Jude Championship. The top 50 after this week advance onto the BMW Championship, with the final 30 making it the season-ending TOUR Championship with a chance to win the FedExCup. FedExCup points are quadrupled for the first two Playoffs events, with the winner earning 2,000 points.
Chris Kirk, who aced the par-3 14th hole, holds a one-shot lead at 6-under after a first-round 64 that featured just one bogey on the final hole. Taylor Pendrith, Matthieu Pavon and Hideki Matsuyama are all T2 at 5-under. World No. 1 and FedExCup leader Scottie Scheffler is close behind at 4-under, off the heels of an Olympic gold medal, along with last season's runner-up in the FedExCup and two-time major champion this season Xander Schauffele. Three-time FedExCup champion Rory McIlroy sits at 3-under. Defending FedExCup champion Viktor Hovland is T43 after an even-par 70 in the opening round.
Here's everything you need to know to follow the action.
