Live leaderboard for final round of FedEx St. Jude Championship 2026

0 3 minutes read

Scottie Scheffler set a course record on Friday at the FedEx St. Jude Championship with a breezy 61. On Saturday, he grinded out a 68 in 97-degree heat at TPC Southwind and had to work for every bit of it. Three pars to start, a bogey at the short fourth, and Viktor Hovland pulled level. Three birdies coming home got the world No. 1 to 13-under and pushed the cushion back to two.

Sam Burns is the reason two shots feels thin. He went out in 30 for a for a bogey-free 62, and sits at 11 under alongside Sungjae Im, who posted a 67. Jake Knapp and Tommy Fleetwood are three back at 8 under. Hovland gave it all away on the back nine and turned in a 72.

Only the top 50 in the FedEx Cup standings move on to the BMW Championship next week. Everyone else ends their season on Sunday. Maverick McNealy is sitting on the bubble at 50. Jordan Spieth shot 72 and needs a strong Sunday to get back in it. Brian Harman has climbed from 65th to a projected 51st and needs one more good round.

Here’s a look at the leaderboard heading into the final round on Sunday.
