He may not be playing the U.S. Open next week, but Phil Mickelson is still in the field this week at the FedEx St. Jude Classic as he looks for his first win in nearly four years. Here's a look at a few of the marquee, early-round groupings at TPC Southwind (all times ET):8:40 a.m. Thursday, 1:40 p.m. Friday: Billy Horschel, Kevin Chappell, Cody GribbleGribble hails from Texas and won for the first time earlier this season, and he'll be joined for the first two rounds by players who notched recent wins in the Lone Star State. Horschel topped Jason Day in a playoff three weeks ago at the AT&T Byron Nelson, while Chappell ended a lengthy victory drought at the Valero Texas Open in April.
8:50 a.m. Thursday, 1:50 p.m. Friday: Rickie Fowler, Daniel Berger, Adam ScottBerger won this event in his debut appearance last year, and he'll play alongside two men who are each making their second career trips to Memphis.

1:40 p.m. Thursday, 8:40 a.m. Friday: Russell Henley, Graeme McDowell, Jim FurykHenley got back in the winner's circle earlier this year at the Shell Houston Open, and he'll play the first 36 holes alongside Furyk whose Ryder Cup team he hopes to make next fall. Furyk is playing Memphis for the first time since a T-24 finish in 1994, while McDowell will round out the trio on the heels of four top-30 finishes in his last five starts overall.
1:50 p.m. Thursday, 8:50 a.m. Friday: Phil Mickelson, Brooks Koepka, Hudson SwaffordMickelson will be one of the main draws this week at TPC Southwind as he makes his fourth straight start and seventh overall. Koepka has feasted on this course in recent years, with a T-2 finish last year and a T-3 result in 2015, while Swafford notched his maiden victory earlier this year in Palm Springs and hopes to end a run of three straight missed cuts.
Mickelson and Koepka are among a group of 11 players on four under par after rounds of 66 at TPC Southwind. Power, who went to university in Tennessee, had six birdies and one bogey in his 65.
