The waiting is over, and it ended with a stampede. Scottie Scheffler won the FedEx St. Jude Championship by a staggering eight shots, finishing at 17-under 263 at TPC Southwind for the largest winning margin in event history. It was his 21st career PGA Tour victory and his first since January, snapping a stretch that somehow included 12 top-fives without a trophy.

The win paid $3.6 million, and the Friday fireworks were just as memorable: Scheffler's second-round 61 tied the course record. Even a bunker shot that ricocheted off a sprinkler head into the water on Sunday couldn't slow him down.

ROSE CITY RALLY

Jeeno Thitikul closed with an 8-under 64 to win the Standard Portland Classic by one at 22-under, her third victory of 2026 and the 10th LPGA title of her career at just 23 years old.

Thailand swept the podium, with Arpichaya Yubol and Chanettee Wannasaen tied for second, and four Thai players landed inside the top 10.

BELLERIVE BOUND

The BMW Championship brings the top 50 in FedEx Cup points to Bellerive Country Club in St. Louis (Aug 21–23 finish, no cut), the first Tour stop there since the 2018 PGA Championship. Only the top 30 after Sunday advance to the Tour Championship at East Lake, and Rickie Fowler currently sits right on the bubble at No. 30. Scheffler defends his title as the runaway points leader.
