The FedEx St. Jude Championship 2026 is set to be a thrilling conclusion to the golf season, with the final round tee times and pairings announced. The tournament, held at TPC Southwind in Memphis, Tennessee, promises an exciting showdown as the top players battle for the title. Among the contenders, Scottie Scheffler stands out as the clear favorite, carrying a dominant 54-hole lead into Sunday's final round.
What makes this tournament particularly intriguing is the dynamic between Scheffler and his long-time friend, Sam Burns. They will share the honor of going last off the first tee, adding a layer of personal significance to the competition. With a two-shot lead, Scheffler is poised to secure his second win of the 2026 season, extending his impressive streak of 54-hole lead victories.
The chasing pack includes Sam Burns and Sungjae Im, who are sitting T-2, two shots back of Scheffler. Burns' bogey-free 62 on Moving Day showcased his prowess, propelling him up 17 spots on the leaderboard. Im, on the other hand, has maintained a consistent performance, securing second place at the end of each round this week.
