Cam Smith offered a slight hint about his upcoming plans following the first round of the playoff opener.

Speaking to Sky Sports after a first-round 67 at the FedEx St. Jude Championship, Smith said he was prepared to “cop some heat” for his decisions.

The Telegraph reported earlier this week that Smith, the world No. 2 and reigning Open champion, was set to depart for LIV Golf following the conclusion of the playoffs after reportedly receiving a nine-figure signing bonus.

When repeatedly pressed by a reporter at TPC Southwind, Smith said he had no comment on the report and was solely focused on the FedExCup.
