Every shot from WILD playoff | Will Zalatoris wins FedEx St. Jude Championship | 2022

Check out every shot from the dramatic three-hole playoff at the 2022 FedEx St. Jude Championship, where Will Zalatoris beat Sepp Straka to earn his first victory on the PGA TOUR. After a tee shot that saw his ball bounce on the rocks while avoiding the water, Zalatoris took a drop from the penalty area and saved bogey to capture the win on the third playoff hole at TPC Southwind.

The top 125 players in the FedExCup Standings will tee it up just outside of Memphis this week in the first of three FedExCup Playoffs events. Scottie Scheffler will head to TPC Southwind leading the FedExCup points list after an incredible 2022 has seen him win four times, including a win at the Masters Tournament in April. Tony Finau heads into the playoffs ranked seventh in the FedExCup Standings after back-to-back victories at the 3M Open and the Rocket Mortgage Classic. The American won the first FedExCup Playoffs event in 2021 and will be hoping to defend his title at a new host golf course. Cameron Smith will return to play for the first time since his victory at The Open. Last year, the Australian narrowly missed out on a victory in the first FedExCup Playoffs event after losing to Tony Finau in a playoff. Sitting in the second position in the FedExCup Standings, a good finish for Smith at the FedEx St. Jude should see him sitting in prime position to challenge for the PGA TOUR’s ultimate prize at the end of the month. Last year’s FedExCup winner Patrick Cantlay, currently sitting in fifth, will look to become the first ever back-to-back FedExCup winner. The 30-year-old has only won once this season at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans, but comes into the playoffs in great form, finishing inside the top 10 in his three most recent events.

Did they leave out one of Strakas shots? At 3:59 he’s hitting from the fairway when it showed his tee shot going into the tall grass earlier

[@Nubsta5]

They may have made a ruling that he was in the hazard and thus dropped. Not sure, I didn't watch the coverage.

[@Kazyman]

He ( Straka ) decided to take a drop after taking off one shoe & toying with the idea of advancing the ball ( which he could've & should've done, even though I didn't want him to win ). Me thinks it would've been a dif outcome so I'm glad he decided to take that drop but yes, they should've included that seg in this vid.

@@Kazyman he hit his next shot to 5 ft after the drop, so I'm not sure how it could have turn out any better had he hit it forward 30 yards unless he miraculously made the approach shot from 100 yards out.

He called an unplayable on his drive’s lie, since Zalatoris had to punch out. It was on the edge of the hazard but he would have had to take both shoes off and played standing in the water.

[@jordanjose6475]

@@johnnysoccer1983 it just saves time from them going all they way back to a different whole. also they want the final hole usually to be the 18th because they have the most spectators and cameras there to capture the moment.

@@hankhudson81 They really should play different holes each time..... I guess they want to stay close to the last hole so they don't have to travel for presentations and stuff, but ... that's just lazy and playing other holes is better for spectators and gives both players more of a challenge and doesn't favour someone who might be better at one type of hole than the others.

More than likely he bailed out due to pressure imho. I bet he was aiming left. His 2nd tee shot on 18 was chunky and it barely made the lake. You just swing different under really heavy pressure and it's hard to practice.

[@georgesealy4706]

Hmmm. . . my question is, was Z's ball in the hazard on #11? If not, then how was he able to go to the drop zone? It seems then that his only option was to declare an unplayable lie. And there are only 3 options for that: 1. Play the shot over, that is go back to the tee in this case, 2. go backwards keeping that spot on a line with the flag stick, or 3. drop the ball within 2 club lengths no nearer the hole. So even though the ball was not in the water, I guess they deemed it in the hazard.

[@PokeTherapy34]

He took a drop and one stroke

[@georgesealy4706]

@@PokeTherapy34 The ONLY way he could drop where he did is if his ball was regarded in the hazard even though it was not in the water. A player cannot just drop anywhere from an unplayable lie situation.
