The Tour heads to one in every of my favored Tour stops for the FedEx St. Jude Classic in Memphis:
TPC Southwind is widely considered one of the first-rate designs on Tour by the players and embraces a incredible charity in the St. Jude?S Hospitals. The occasion and the direction do not pretty get the popularity of different activities and guides as the field is often weaker because of america Open being on the subsequent week.
But, it?S a notable layout through Ron Prichard who turned into acknowledged for doing renovations of guides from my favored architect, Donald Ross.
The direction plays to 7,244 yards at a par-70. The very last vital hole is the 453 backyard par-4 18th hollow.
The force on 18 indicates why it?S a hollow with such first-rate deviation in scores:
That red dot way up in the fairway is Brooks Koepka.
However, that is surely an technique shot path and gamers that win here tend to be suitable from longer approach pictures and a few shorter approach photographs due to some of the fast par-four?S and par-5?S that might not be accessible with a mediocre pressure. There?S constantly the possibility that a participant like a Koepka can pressure it well and overpower the course and depart themselves with shorter approaches and take gain of the sphere anyway. This path normally favors the pinnacle gamers greater, however that?S due to the fact the sector generally presents itself with weaker players due to america Open. But ultimately, there?S loads of unique sorts of gamers that may win at Memphis.
