2019 The Northern Trust Preview

The 2019 FedEx Cup Playoffs kick off this week at Liberty National Golf Club at The Northern Trust. This is the first year the playoffs will only consist of three events, which puts a premium on high finishes in order to make the top 30 and the Tour Championship. Last year, Bryson DeChambeau won The Northern Trust by four strokes over Tony Finau, and he will defend his title against 124 other playoff contenders. Past champions in the field include 2-time winner Dustin Johnson, 2016 champion Patrick Reed, and 2010 champ Matt Kuchar. Other notables in the field include two-time FedEx Cup winner Tiger Woods, current points leader Brooks Koepka, and reigning FedEx Cup champion Justin Rose.

LOCATION

Liberty National Golf Club  :

will host this event for the third time. Featuring scenic views of New York City and the Statue of liberty available from the golf course, Liberty National also hosted the presidents Cup in 2017.

 

PLAYERS TO WATCH

Adam Scott:  The Australian star won this event at Liberty National in 2013. This golf course places a premium on ball striking, which plays right into Adam’s wheelhouse. He currently sits 21stin the standings, so a solid finish here can punch his ticket to East Lake.

Tiger Woods: The previous two times The Northern Trust was held at Liberty National, Tiger finished runner-up. The key for Tiger Woods this week is the weather; warm temperatures all week should give him the edge he needs to contend come Sunday.
