MEMPHIS, Tenn. \u2014 Ryan Palmer could feel Cam Smith’s footsteps approaching from behind the microphone. After an entire round playing together, he wanted to get in one last shot. <\/p>\n
\u201cThat’s what I love about what we do out here, there’s always somewhere to go up and there’s always something to play for,\u201d Palmer said, intentionally framing a question about the BMW Championship within the larger narrative that has consumed golf this season, a narrative in which Smith has become a central figure. \u201cWe’re not playing for just money.\u201d<\/p>\n
Welcome to what’s becoming the most bizarre FedEx Cup playoffs in PGA Tour history, and its annual stop in Memphis could also double as the start of the PGA Tour’s worst nightmare. <\/p>\n
Smith is the latest golfer rumored to soon be defecting to LIV Golf and he’s just two shots back of the lead heading into Sunday at the FedEx St. Jude Championship. He would ascend to No. 1 in the world rankings should he win this tournament.<\/p>\n
