Not sure there's enough light for a play-off tonight so could be pretty inconvenient for the guys heading for Oakmont.

The FedEx St. Jude Classic dates back to 1958. Dave Hill holds the record for most wins with four, followed by Lee Trevino in 2nd place with three wins. The best golfer to win this event in modern times is Dustin Johnson in 2012. Tiger Woods has never won the St. Jude Classic but his college roommate and teammate from Stanford Notah Begay won here in 2000.
SIX of the 25 top ranked players in the world are in the playing field for the 2017 FedEx St. Jude Classic: •Adam Scott •Rickie Fowler •Francesco Molinari •Charl Schwartzel •Brooks Koepka •Phil Mickelson• | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Tommy Bolt: 'It wasn't me! ... OK, it was me.' Bolt's nickname was "Terrible Tommy" because of his infamous on-course temper. Bolt threw tantrums and he threw clubs, and it was part of the show. And, his reputation established, it was a show. Bolt once observed, "Always throw your clubs ahead of you. That way you don't have to waste energy going back to pick them up."
Tommy won the 1958 US Open, and one year later he lived up to another of his nicknames: "Thunder" Bolt. At the 1959 Memphis Invitational Open (what today is known as the FedEx-St. Jude Classic), Bolt felt a sudden ... intestinal urge. And not one to hold his, ahem, feelings in, Bolt let rip with a mighty wind. Loud flatulence was, along with club-throwing, something of a habit with Tommy. But this time, tour officials had seen - and heard, and smelled - enough. Following the round, Bolt was assessed a $250 fine for "conduct unbecoming a professional golfer." Making Tommy Bolt the only golfer in PGA Tour history (as far as anyone knows) penalized for farting.....a gentle pun to the farts on here - ye know who ye are  | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Horschel, Koepka, Berger & Weekley are the course horses to watch this week. HOLD YOUR HORSES ON Steve Stricker atm as he's made the cut for the US Open at Erin Hills in his home state of Wisconsin.
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
By:
Stricker advanced through 36-hole qualifier in Germanstown & Ridgeway GC's (practically next door to TPC Southwind) so maybe the plan is to stay local and play here.
The other 8 local qualifiers were Argentina's Andres Romero 400/1, Troy Merritt 275/1, Chez Reavie 160/1, Harris English 80/1, Garrett Osborn 1000/1, Trey Mullinax 400/1, Xander Schauffele 150/1 & Jonathan Randolph 225/1 - all are entered to play here atm. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Jamie Lovemark earned his ticket to Erin Hills as he qualifier in Columbus, Ohio and has decided to pass on the TPC Southwind Classic. Jamie was one of 14 qualifiers - the others being JT Poston, Kokrak, Bud Cauley, Martin Laird, Keegan Bradley, Stewart Cink, Bryson DeChambeau, CT Pan, David Lingmerth, Ted Potter Jr., Peter Uihlein, Scottie Scheffler & Talor Gooch.
THE LIST of pre-tournament WD's just got bigger: Kelly Kraft, Keegan Bradley, Nicholas Thompson, Soren Kjeldsen, Jason Kokrak, CT Pan and you guessed it Steve Stricker. As cautioned keep a close eye on the field this week. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

By:
Ireland's Padraig Harrington is next on the WD list, but only because of receiving an injury from an amateur player (needed 6 stitches on his arm). "I was hit on the elbow with a practice swing by an amateur I was coaching at an outing. I'll only be out for 12 days or so to let stitches heal. Thankfully nothing was broken,just 6 stitches. I thought it was the end of me playing competitive golf" - said the three time Major winner.

Season Trends so far: after 30 tournaments of 47 this season.
16 winners were in their 20s, 11 in their 30s and 4 in their 40s. 16 winners had at least one week off prior to their respective wins, 13 winners had a top-10 finish the start prior and 4 had a missed cut (Mackenzie Hughes, Si Woo Kim, Billy Horschel (x4), and last week's 40yo Jason Dufner. 19 of the 28 winners (minus Match Play and team-Zurich) have emerged out of the FINAL group on Sunday.....But 54-hole leaders/co-leaders have failed to convert the last five - the most recent to get across the finish line was Kevin Chappell (Valero TO). | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Monday was 36 holes US OPEN Sectional Qualifying so golfers who end up qualifying, swiftly withdraw from the St. Jude Classic. That will change next year when TPC Southwind hosts a WGC event.

i know i will probably end up regretting it like with Web simpson but i am laying off Dustin, atleast this time it is around evens and not 5/2 andDusty was only 7/1 so its a smaller less of green when laying, i juts have a feeling he isnt going to get the job done this week.I think he will go very close next week for sure.

Please stop force feeding us your politically correct, gender equality nonsense. Can you please show the Tournament you have advertised, the high calibre male event involving the recently deposed world number 2 who actually leads the Tourney. Not this women's amateur rubbish you wish to subject us too. Sat down expecting DJ and co and have women's pairs ffs. NOT WHAT I PAY OVER 100 POUNDS A MONTH FOR. whether you think so or not. Pathetic. Women's cricket,women's football ,women's golf, create ANOTHER DEDICATED SPORTS CHANNEL WILL YOU. For all those millions of fans who are into this garbage you continually try and brainwash us with. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
