FedEx St Jude Championship picks

The Golfing Gazette writers have predicted the winner of the St Jude Championship this week.

Jordan Harris: There have been some surprise winners of the FedEx St Jude Championship in recent years, so it is about time the heavy favourite won. If Scottie Scheffler’s driver behaves around TPC Southwind, he could win by several shots this week.

James Shearman: It’s a real surprise that Corey Conners still only has two PGA Tour wins, both at the Valero Texas Open. The Canadian golfer is one of the more consistent players, with two top-10 major finishes this season, and has what it takes to lift the trophy at TPC Southwind.
