Dustin Johnson and Jordan Spieth offered up a thrilling finish Sunday at The Northern Trust in Old Westbury, N.Y. — the first of four FedExCup playoff events.
And they’ll pick up right where they left off at the Dell Technologies Championship at TPC Boston. DJ and Spieth — ranked 1-2 in the current FedExCup standings — are paired with Justin Thomas, ranked third, on Friday and Saturday. They’ll tee off at 9:15 a.m. ET Friday.

Top 100 players in the FedExCup standings will be reduced to the top 70 after this week’s event in Norton, Mass. Last week at The Northern Trust, three golfers who were outside the top 100 worked their way into the Dell Technologies field, led by Bubba Watson, who entered ranked 113th but rose to 72nd after a 10th-place finish. Johnson will need to rise more this week if he is going to qualify for the third FedExCup playoff event, the BMW Championship in Lake Forest, Ill., from Sept. 14-17.
Rory McIlroy was 38th in the points standings heading into the Dell Technologies event last year, but he rose to fourth with a victory on his way to winning the FedExCup title.
