The PGA Tour’s 2024 FedEx Cup Playoff finale is off and running and so is Scottie Scheffler.
The world No. 1 has opened a seven-shot lead at the revamped par-71, 7,490 yard East Lake Golf Club. Scheffler shot a first-round 65 and after starting at 10 under, thanks to the PGA Tour’s staggered strokes format, he’s become the first golfer on record (since 1983) to hold a seven-shot lead or more after 18 holes.
Scheffler is sitting at 16 under. His first-round playing partner, Xander Schauffele shot 70, and he’s tied for second with Collin Morikawa, shot 66, at 9 under.
The second-round tee times are not based on one’s position on the leaderboard but rather first-round scores, so Morikawa’s 66 puts him in the final group with Scheffler.
Adam Scott also shot 66, as did Taylor Pendrith, Aaron Rai and Justin Thomas.
The winner of the 2024 Tour Championship banks $25 million in bonus money. From tee times to TV and streaming info, here’s what you need to know for the second round of the 2024 Tour Championship. All times listed are ET.
