The first leg of the FedEx Cup playoffs has reached its final round. We can only hope the action at the St. Jude Championship is at hot as the weather in Memphis.
With temperatures forecast to be back over 100, the golfers hoping to hang onto or snare a spot in the top 50 of the standings will have plenty to fight against. Sungjae Im can't afford to fall off after his impressive start; tied for second at 11 under through three rounds, the Korean has risen from 53rd to 35th. He and Sam Burns, who shot a blistering 8 under in Round 3, enter play today two strokes behind leader Scottie Scheffler.
The other name to watch on the bubble is Brian Harman, who comes in tied for sixth with Hideki Matsuyama, Si Woo Kim and Alex Noren six shots back. Harman has soared from No. 65 at the start of the tournament to No. 51, and if he can keep climbing, he could unseat Maverick McNealy for the final berth at next week's BMW Championship.

World number one Scottie Scheffler seized his first 54-hole lead in more than a year, taking a two-stroke edge after Saturday's third round of the PGA St. Jude Championship.
The 30-year-old American fired a two-under par 68 to stand on 13-under 197 after three rounds in the PGA FedEx Cup playoff opener at TPC Southwind in Memphis, Tennessee.
Four-time major winner Scheffler, who last led after 54 holes at last year's British Open, will play Sunday's final round alongside friend and compatriot Sam Burns, who shot a bogey-free 62 to share second with South Korean Im Sung-jae on 199.
Defending playoff champion Tommy Fleetwood of England shared fourth on 202 with American Jake Knapp, with South Korean Kim Si-woo, Sweden's Alex Noren, American Brian Harman and ***** an's Hideki Matsuyama another stroke adrift.
Im is among those in position to jump into the top 50 on the season points list and qualify for next week's playoff event in St. Louis while Harman needs improvement on Sunday to rise from 51st.

GREENSBORO, N.C. — Beau Hossler handled a half-dozen tough par putts and two rain delays Saturday for a 4-under 66 that gave him a share of the lead with Michael Brennan going into the final round of the Wyndham Championship with postseason berths at stake.
Hossler is No. 122 in the FedExCup, knowing his only mathematical chance to be among the top 70 to advance to playoffs is to win for the first time on the PGA Tour.
Brennan, who went from the PGA Tour Americas to a PGA Tour card by winning the Bank of Utah Championship last fall, made a birdie putt from 15 feet on the last hole for a 63.
They were at 16-under 194, one shot ahead of Scottish Open winner Tom Kim (63), and two shots clear of 44-year-old Alex Noren and Alex Smalley, who each shot 65.
Such is the nature of the final regular-season tournament — and the stakes — that nine of the top 10 players on the leaderboard shot 66 or lower on Saturday.
