Summary

The FedEx Cup Playoffs got started in the best way possible, with Dustin Johnson beating Jordan Spieth with one of the shots of the year on the first playoff hole at the Northern Trust.

Kyle and Chip recap all the fun from the first round of the playoffs and preview the next event, the Dell Technologies Championship.
