How to Watch BMW Championship, First Round: Stream PGA Tour Golf Live, TV Channel

Lucas Glover arrives for the tournament in 30th place and holds a 27-point lead over Sam Stevens. Perhaps no one is more disappointed in their predicament than Xander Schauffele, who is in 43rd place — unfamiliar territory for a player who won two majors in 2024 while rising to No. 3 in the Official World Golf Ranking. Schauffele needs at worst a solo 21st-place finish at the BMW Championship to make it to the final event.

Players are competing for the $3.6 million share of the $20 million purse along with 2,000 FedExCup points. Defending champion Keegan Bradley won last year at Castle Pines in Colorado, claiming a one-stroke win over Ludvig Åberg, Sam Burns and Adam Scott. It was his second win at the BMW Championship after beating Justin Rose in a playoff at Aronimink in 2018.

Rose jumped to fourth place in the standings after picking up 2,000 points with his playoff victory at the FedEx St. Jude Championship last weekend. Scottie Scheffler leads the standings by more than 2,000 points over Rory McIlroy, but this year’s Tour Championship format has changed. This year, the player with the lowest total over 72 holes wins the FedExCup with everyone starting at even-par rather than the old format of players getting strokes based on their place in the standings.
