The PGA Tour this week features the 2026 FedEx St. Jude Championship starting on Thursday at TPC Southwind in Memphis, Tennessee.<\/p>\n
My PGA Tour field ranking for FedEx St. Jude Championship looks at the top 10 players in this 69-player field<\/a> that brings together the best in the world for the final regular-season FedEx Cup event.<\/p>\n The FedEx St. Jude Championship<\/a> marks the return of the PGA Tour to Tennessee for the start of the FedEx Cup playoffs.<\/p>\n TPC Southwind plays, in a lot of ways, like Sedgefield from tee to green. But there are marked differences: the green complexes, the amount of water in play and the design joy. Still, there’s a pretty decent comp there. Distance isn’t much here if you can’t get off the tee.<\/p>\n Just a reminder that I make my expert picks looking at all fantasy leagues and formats. Whether you’re playing in a fantasy golf leagues, betting on golf, or competing in a DFS (DraftKings, FanDuel) event, our picks highlight the top PGA Tour golfers to watch this week from our 2026 FedEx St. Jude Championship rankings.<\/p>\n 2026 FedEx St. Jude Championship expert picks and rankings<\/p>\n 1. Scottie Scheffler<\/a>: Scheffler has been the top player in golf this year, despite the fact that he’s just won once. He has a great record here.<\/p>\n LISTEN TO GOLF NEWS NET RADIO 24\/7 2. Hideki Matsuyama<\/a>: This one might seem strange if you haven’t been paying attention, but Hideki has been on fire of late.<\/p>\n 3. Rory McIlroy<\/a>: I guess this week, and the next two, depends on the McIlroy that wants to show up to play. He can dominate, if he wants.<\/p>\n 4. Tommy Fleetwood<\/a>: Fleetwood has been very good the last few months, and he has a strong track record at TPC Southwind.<\/p>\n 5. Michael Brennan<\/a>: Brennan put to bed the critique of his final-round performance and won the darn thing in Greensboro.<\/p>\n SAVE ON GNN MEMBERSHIP:<\/a> Join now, and get 2 years for $70 OR 3 years for $100!

Collin Morikawa<\/a>: Morikawa has missed one cut all year (the first one, in Hawaii), and he’s been strong a lot of the year. He likes TPC Southwind.<\/p>\n 7. Chris Gotterup<\/a>: Gotterup missed the cut in Detroit, which is fine, but his driving needs to be better this week, accuracy-wise, to win.<\/p>\n 8. Sam Burns<\/a>: Burns burnt me here a few years ago in a playoff, but he likes the course, and he’s been so good this summer.<\/p>\n
