Scottie Scheffler Dominates FedEx St. Jude Championship, Leads by Three Strokes

Scottie Scheffler has taken a commanding lead at the FedEx St. Jude Championship, the first event of the FedEx Cup Playoffs. Scheffler matched the course record with a nine-under 61 in the second round, extending his advantage to three strokes over the field. He demonstrated exceptional form, even birdying the first five holes on Friday.

Scheffler's performance puts him in a strong position as the tournament progresses. Other notable contenders include Sungjae Im, Ludvig Åberg, and Jordan Spieth, who are all chasing the world number one. Spieth, despite being on the playoff bubble, is playing well and is among those looking to challenge Scheffler's lead. Meanwhile, Robert MacIntyre withdrew from the event due to a knee injury.
