Only 50 players will tee it up at the BMW Championship, as the PGA Tour play-offs heat up.

It’s time for the second leg ahead of next week’s Tour Championship and, at over 8,000 yards, Castle Pines will pose a test.

The course is the longest on the PGA Tour this season, with Torrey Pines coming in just shy of the monster yardage players will deal with this week.

This will mark the first edition of the tournament held at the Colorado venue after Viktor Hovland took home the 2023 BMW Championship title at Olympia Fields.

Once again, the world’s best players will contest the $20 million purse, with over $3.5 million handed to the winner.

Meanwhile, 2,000 FedEx Cup points will be awarded to the winner, and they could be crucial, as players jockey for position at East Lake next week.

There are few better times in the season to bring your A-game, too, as only the top 30 in the FedEx Cup standings – described ‘silly’ by Scottie Scheffler – advance to the Tour Championship.

Here’s all the info you need ahead of the BMW Championship…

The Denver native has had a stronger season that most have given him credit for and with a home game this week, can make a bold bid. Clark has admitted to knowing this venue well and has already won on these putting surfaces this season. He wasn’t far away last week, finishing T7, so is bang in form, too.
