The final round of the FedEx St. Jude Championship is underway at TPC Southwind in Memphis, Tennessee, with players competing not only for victory but also for a spot in the top 50 of the FedExCup standings. The top 50 will secure a tee time at Caves Valley Golf Club and ensure starts in all of next year’s Signature Events.
Tommy Fleetwood is leading the way with a strong start, but Scottie Scheffler and Justin Rose are hot on his heels. Meanwhile, Chris Kirk is trying to climb inside the bubble after a disappointing birdie putt on No. 17.
Bud Cauley has vaulted up the leaderboard with an incredible hole-out from the bunker at the par-4 17th, while Kurt Kitayama is pushing himself into contention with a stellar back nine. Rickie Fowler, however, is falling out of the bubble after a bogey on the seventh hole.
As the day unfolds, players will be competing to keep their season alive and set up for next year. The top-50 standings are crucial, as they determine who gets to advance to the BMW Championship and secure a spot in all of next year’s Signature Events.
The action is heating up, with Aaron Rai making back-to-back birdies on Nos. 12 and 13 and J.T. Poston rattling off three birdies in a row to erase his opening-hole bogey. Follow along for updates on everything happening in the final round from Memphis.
As of now, here are the projected standings:
