Memphis, August 9 (V7N) — The second round of the 2025 FedEx St. Jude Championship, opening event of the FedEx Cup Playoffs, was suspended on Friday due to severe weather, pausing play at 4:31 p.m. ET amid flooding concerns. The tournament will resume Saturday morning, with the second round set to conclude at 8:30 a.m. ET (7:30 a.m. local) and the third round to follow shortly after.
England’s Tommy Fleetwood maintains a commanding four‑shot lead at 13‑under after a stellar 6‑under 64 in the second round.
Fleetwood’s consistency — a 63 in the opening round followed by his latest 64 — underscores his pursuit of his first PGA Tour victory.
Trailing Fleetwood are Collin Morikawa, Akshay Bhatia, and Justin Rose, all tied for second place at 9‑under. Morikawa carded a 65 in round two, while Bhatia and Rose are yet to complete their second round due to the weather delay.
With much of the leaderboard frozen in time, a full day of golf is now scheduled on Saturday, promising an intense battle as the field looks to close the gap on Fleetwood before the weekend concludes.
