The FedEx St. Jude Championship marks the 67th year that the PGA TOUR is making a stop in Memphis and there is plenty to celebrate as 70 of the top golfers from around the world participate in this one-of-a-kind event benefiting St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital®. St. Jude has been the charity partner of this PGA TOUR stop since 1970 thanks to support from FedEx and the PGA TOUR. What results is a week of world class golf, with exciting activities shining a spotlight on philanthropy and what makes this tournament so special — the generous community support for St. Jude kids. Events like the FedEx St. Jude Championship help fund the ongoing $12.9 billion, six-year St. Jude strategic plan that includes tripling its global investment to impact more of the 400,000 kids around the world with cancer each year.
Throughout the week, you will find images, videos and media materials on this page for a look into heartwarming patient stories, philanthropic events and patient/player interactions that make the FedEx St. Jude Championship such a special event.
