Cantlay begins with PGA edge

-

ATLANTA — The PGA Tour Championsh­ip tees off Thursday at East Lake. In the third year of its current format, Patrick Cantlay as the No. 1 seed will start the tournament at 10-under par with a two-shot lead over Tony Finau — meaning there is a possibilit­y a player who takes the fewest shots over four rounds might not win the $15 million prize or leave town with a trophy. Bryson DeChambeau will start three shots behind, followed by Jon Rahm (6 under) and Cameron Smith (5 under). It goes in groups of fives after that, with the last five players to get in starting at even par.
