The first leg of the FedExCup Playoffs kicks off this week at the FedEx St. Jude Championship at TPC Southwind. Scottie Scheffler returns to action as he begins his march to win back-to-back FedExCup trophies – something that has never been done before. Only Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods have won more than one FedExCup. Joining him is Hideki Matsuyama who looks to become the first golfer to go back-to-back at TPC Southwind since 2017. Teeing it up alongside these two, are some of the world’s best, including Xander Schauffele, Viktor Hovland, Justin Thomas, Collin Morikawa and Keegan Bradley.

[Applause] Keller one under Justin Rose the winner of the FedEx Cup Championship in 2018. Such a good golf swing right there. Little bit of trouble. Right trees never good. This could be incredible. Are you kidding me? That is so good. That’s a hard green to hit. So important. So significant. Good contact for Ryan Fox. Excellent result. Aspirational pace of play. This man, the Kiwi. I think if you’re working on pace of play on the PJ2, just watch this play. But anything with speed should stay pretty straight. Straight in. rectified his opening bogey with an eagle at the par five third and 195 yards today to a whole location away from the water. Talked about all the water in in play off these par threes. But gorgeous shot there from Maddie. Number 45 on the list. Watch this T-shot at the par 38. Watch what he does. Well, when you see a player let go with one hand like that usually means not solid contact there. He look a little thick there. So maybe a little high on the face, but dumped it. Hated it. The man who earned more FedEx Cup points in the signature events than anyone this season. Russell Henley gets his round underway, doing what he’s done all season, just knocking flags down. Next par three on the course, 11 from 165. Yeah, look at this little draw there. He faded that iron shot back on number eight. This one going right at the flag stick. tucked by into that bunker there and rolls it up there, taking apart the part. Very accessible hole location and factoring in a little bit of breeze of hurt. Yeah. Well done. You you got, you know, I’m going to go by a quote. Maybe it encapsulates his entire game. He’s He says, “I’m just trying to focus on being really, really good at what I’m good at.” So he knows his strengths, he knows his weaknesses right there, one behind as we catch up with JT Post at 16. Yeah, here’s the change with these approaches and collars that you can use and that’s going to be really helpful. You talked about it, but this is probably gap wedge. He looks like he’s gripped. Yeah, that was more of like a comfortable swing. might have even been 54 to comfortable shot for Justin Thomas dialing it up perfect distance though it’s a hard par4 don’t talk to Andre like that do not talk that was awesome that’s fleet of foot to get over there that quickly he left some footprints in the in the bunker he’s going to have to rake all right Cameron Young to jump to six under 27footer at the 17th for birdie Yeah. Well, he’s talked about how this long putter the last couple years has given him like new life. A lot longer range in his putts. FedEx cut points is kind of what you need to be in that mix. And if you don’t win, that’s a lot of good golf. Keegan Bradley trying to get it back to even par. It’s for birdie at 11. Wow, that was Oh, carrying it out over the water and that’s how you get it close. Oh, great shot from Burns. Birdie, how about 18 from 159 from the fairway. Well, he did the hard part there. He found that fairway. Pretty accessible hole location here in the back right away from the water. Made that obviously get it to 8 under. Patrick Can a decki winner here last year. Oh, look at this. Come on, baby. Wow. Can’t do it much better than that. And Hideki Trackman Technology presented by Titalist, the number one ball in golf. Little cut in there. Look at that. Two really good looking shots in there. Hole location 20 on the water is out of play. The water comes into play on the front front hole locations, especially the front right. That’s perfect. Should hit that inside 10 ft. And he does. Can you imagine causing at the top like that and actually hitting a proficient shot. Well, he did that just there. Two good shots into 15. Really crazy. Russell Henley long grip. Keep moving. There’s one that drops in. How about that? Yeah. A lot of work left here obviously for his par. He’s got a good round going. Oh, what a save. Boy, does that feel good. An unexpected save for Par. Huge. He’s been oscillating between the green and the red. It’s that time of year again. Par five. Of course. Yeah, he’ll take that bonus. Back at the second, Scotty Sheffller from the fairway. Oh, he’s so magnificent with these shots. has very little wrist hinge when he makes these wedge swings especially. And there’s a one of the rarities. You’ll see the ball actually spin back on these second at the second. And you can fire this back to this flag. You just don’t want to go over it. Slopes a little bit away. Still receptive to these short iron. This hole causes a little havoc for the players. A little dog leg left. Not necessarily a driver off the tee, but that front right pin from the fairway not too hard to get to. Good stories out here this year. His return. Looking at Michael Kim now on the tea at the par 311. Having a great year out here. Michael Kim, man, a good T- shot there. The way he’s been playing. Moment ago, Davis Riley at 16, his fourth. Got that thing to come out low. Oh, he’s a little on the down slope. It’s running out. He did. Did he? Yeah. Oh, yeah, he did. It’s going to go down as a five. May not be the prettiest five. He’s just solid all around. Now, Novak, his second and seven. Also a tough par4. Tough fairway to hit usually, but not for Novak. That’s why all the players are talking about board the par three for Fenow, who’s got work to do where he’s situated. He does. He’s on the other side of the train where Scotty Sheffller was. He’s elected to use the putter. There’s a big null that shoulder off the edge of the bunker. Hey. Oh wow. A pause just for some drama. That looked like it was going to stop. That was closer to the sand than it was to that sprinkler head. Be common place to putt from from this screen. Did he get it there? Keep it short and under this hole. T-shot plays downhill. So the 216 yd boy an opportunity here from 103 yd sand wedge already played some great golf 400 through4 and I am going to give him that one. I can kick that one in. Prolific right to left player here. Worked hard on the range last week as a teacher Scott Hamilton and T-shot perfect for him. Second shot pretty good. Nearly perfect. Moment ago, Tommy Fleetwood, his third from the bunker at nine. Looks like it might be on the downhill a little, so there’s going to be some run out. Nicely done there by Tommy. Still looking for win number one on the PGA Tour. Lined up well out to the right. So big right to left break. Little downhill. And that gets it back to even part. Boy, just that that dying speed. That was perfect. This at 18 from 169. Good looking short iron swing there. That little cut off finish. Oh, brilliant. And it’s amazing that one shot how much it moving these guys that are back. 398 this par four. hanging around at even par. Needs to get it going. And that T-shot and that second shot looks like he’ll get to under par. Long look, very slow. Straight up the hill, but I didn’t see a lot in this. It’s a pretty straight putt. Another one races home. Good read, Woody. I don’t think it broke at all. Lucas Glover at 15. He looks like he’s going over the water. See if he can get it over it like Aldrich could not. Oh, just barely. Oh, look at this. He took the gamble and it paid off. Of course, a big drive. There’s a lot of loft on that club. Posing sitting right on the 50 mark. And that should help. Some good shots end up bad here. Some that look bad end up good. That looks good. Left of the water. Oh, that’s great. Oh, getting better. I never left the flag stick. What a swing. Starting to play better, too. Back 17. Daniel Burgerer here for his three. This would be for the second in a row. He birded 16. Manages a long bomb here at 17. And that sees Burger. Look at that. End of the week at 30th, projected at 27th. Make sure it’s doing that and not end up in that. He’s hitting it to 22 ft on average today. Third best. Ooh, beautiful shot. Okay. played in the proam yesterday with Penny Hardaway, the head coach of Memphis, NBA star. That guy is huge in this town. And look at this. Yeah. Not a great day for Victor, but this from Bogey. Had to go to the drop area and then long putt here for his four with that big swinger. A Come on now. No kidding. Really? That’s not even counting as a puck, Terry. Perfect opportunity for him to attack. 148 out to the right trying to come back. Looking better [Music] on that little bit of a down slope. That’s why the step through finish right there. That is really well done. Sea from the front edge of the green for birdie. a pillar. It’s got some right to left in it. About that much right in the middle. Calmly pours that one in. You see that? Those green numbers on the right and paying attention. Yes. And come Sunday, certainly if you’re on the bubble, you need to know where you stand overall in the FedEx Cup race to take chances or not.
