The Open, das letzte Major des Golfjahres, ist Geschichte. Während Shane Lowry, aber wohl immer noch feiert und mit dem Claret Jug kuschelt, rüstet sich der Rest der Golfelite für das nächste große Turnier - und einige Spieler wollen hier ihren Frust aus der Vorwoche schnell vergessen machen. Die zum WGC-Event beförderte St. Jude Classic steht in dieser Woche auf dem Programm. Es geht in den TPC Southwind nach Memphis. Offiziell ist Justin Thomas der Titelverteidiger dieses WGC-Events. Letztes Jahr wurde es allerdings noch als Bridgestone Invitational im Firestone ausgetragen. Dort gewann Thomas mit vier Schlägen Vorsprung feiern konnte - vor Kyle Stanley und Thorbjörn Olesen. 64 Spieler, kein Cut und ein Platz, der den Spielern zusammen mit den klimatischen Bedingungen einiges abverlangen wird. Malte Asmus und Désirée Wolff blicken voraus. Und auch auf die Barracuda Championship in Reno. Dort geht es nämlich auch für Martin Kaymer um die Tourkarte.

Jim Furyk shot a 69 but Bradley shot a 64 to win. Sean asks Dr. Bob about Tiger. Dr. Bob feels that Tiger needs to take it one play at a time and go back to his basic mental fundamentals.
