The second of the FedEx Cup Playoff events comes from Castle Pines Golf Club, one of the best courses in Colorado.
The FedEx St. Jude Championship, which was won by Hideki Matsuyama, marked the end of the road for 20 players at this year’s Playoffs, leaving a field of just 50 as they compete to secure places at the finale, next week’s Tour Championship at East Lake.
Like last week’s event at TPC Southwind, the second Playoff features prize money of $20m, and the winner will claim $3.6m of that figure, over $1m than the entire purse for the DP World Tour’s Danish Golf Championship. Meanwhile, the runner-up in Colorado this week is in line for a payday of $2.16m.
There are also 2,000 FedEx Cup points available to the winner this week, with competition intensifying for places in next week’s event, which will offer a prize of $25m to the winner.
Below is the prize money payout for the BMW Championship.
