Raymond McCain

The PGA Tour marches on with the BMW Championship, which is the second event in the 2022 FedExCup Playoffs. 70 players will tee off at Wilmington Country Club in Delaware for the four-day tournament. The top 30 players in the standings after this week's event will advance to next week's Tour Championship at East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta.

Established in 2007, the BMW Championship is the PGA Tour's longest-running regular event on the tour's calendar, outside of the four majors. Notable golfers participating in this week's event include Rory McIlroy, Justin Thomas, Collin Morikawa, Jon Rahm, and Tony Finau. Last week's winner at the St. Jude championship and current leader of the FedExCup points standings, Will Zalatoris will be paired with Scottie Scheffler, who is sitting in second place. Players will be competing for a winner's share of $2.7 million of the $15 million purse.
