The first leg of the 2026 FedEx Cup playoffs is here.
Players will tee off at TPC Southwind in Memphis, Tennessee, for the FedEx St. Jude Championship. Both world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler and No. 2 Rory McIlroy will be competing — and they’ll be the featured pairing Thursday and Friday. Almost all the top 70 golfers in the FedEx Cup standings will be playing this week — and only the top 50 will advance to the next round.
Here are some of the top highlights from what promises to be a fun opening round Thursday.
