FedEx St. Jude Championship final round preview
In addition to a $15 million purse, players are jockeying to get into the top-30 of the FedEx Cup standings and earn a trip to East Lake and next week’s Tour Championship. The BMW is also the last opportunity for players to earn Presidents Cup points and make the top-6 (for the Americans) or top-8 (for the internationals) to earn automatic berths on the respective teams.
One shot back at 11-under is Cantlay’s good friend and teammate for their win earlier this season at the Zurich Classic, Xander Schauffele. Schauffele vaulted up the leaderboard on moving day thanks to a 5-under 66. Joining Schauffele at 11-under after also shooting 66 on Saturday is Scott Stallings.
Below, find everything you need to know about that money, including payout information and winner’s share; you can catch the action from 12-2 p.m. ET on Golf Channel, and from 2 p.m. until the completion of play on NBC (except in the Philadelphia market where coverage will be picked up at 4 p.m. due to preseason football).
