St. Jude Classic preview: Dustin Johnson, Phil Mickelson lead light field

After a thrilling final round at the Memorial Tournament, the PGA Tour heads to Memphis, Tenn., for the FedEx St. Jude Classic at TPC Southwind.

The field is a bit tame, but Dustin Johnson and Phil Mickelson, two of the game's most entertaining players, are in it along with 2013 winner Harris English.

The course is a quaint 7,239-yard par-70 nestled among the landscape's natural lakes, streams and ponds on a former dairy farm. What the tournament lacks in star power, the course makes up for it in beauty and excitement.
