FedEx St. Jude Underdog Fantasy Pick’em Plays – August 15th, 2024
The PGA Tour heads to Memphis for the 2024 FedEx St. Jude Championship. This is a golf course we see on a yearly basis and know very well. TPC Southwind is not a cookie-cutter TPC design that asks you to drive it in the fairway and hit some wedges close.
It is a golf course that requires you to have a ton of ball-striking upside. You do not necessarily need to make a ton of putts in this event, as ball striking will reign supreme.
Sam Burns Higher Than 4 Birdies
Anytime you get on Bermuda, Sam Burns is live to make some noise. The Louisiana native and PGA Tour winner is slowly rounding into form. The ball striking has popped up here and there and he is looking like a man who is close to winning again. Burns loves these surfaces and is a birdie-maker at heart. Look for him to roll the rock and make a few birdies.
Sam Burns found himself standing on a rock with his ball surrounded by fire ants on the 18th hole.

Scottie Scheffler Lower than 1.5 bogeys
On paper, this is one course that has kept Scottie in check. He has never had a top ten here, which he knows. I expect that to change this week. Scheffler is the best player in the world and hits the ball better than anyone.
He is going to change that narrative and get off to a great start in round one. He is a great addition to your FedEx St. Jude Underdog Fantasy Pick’em slips.
