MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — British Open champion Cameron Smith and his chase for No. 1 in the world got a little tougher even before he teed off in the FedEx St. Jude Championship. And it didn’t get any easier. The PGA Tour penalized Smith two shots upon learning he took a drop in the wrong place after hitting into the water on the par-3 fourth hole in the third round Saturday. Instead of being two shots behind, he was four back. Smith shot 70 and tied for 13th. Smith declined to be interviewed after his round. He needed to win to reach No. 1.
