With Scottie Scheffler dominating the opening event in Memphis, the FedEx Cup Playoffs are officially underway. Now, the top 50 competitors in the rankings travel to St. Louis to compete at Bellerive Country Club for the BMW Championship.
Although Scheffler’s triumph in Memphis secured his No. 1 position in the FedEx Cup rankings before the Tour Championship—alongside a massive $23 million payout—there are still numerous positions to be determined in St. Louis. Elite golfers are eager to claim another title before the year concludes, particularly competitors such as Sam Burns, Ludvig Åberg, and Tommy Fleetwood, who are quickly running out of opportunities to secure a 2026 victory.
Additionally, an intense scramble on the bubble for the top 30 positions is unfolding to qualify for the Tour Championship at East Lake, which offers a valuable two-season PGA Tour exemption. Entering the BMW, Rickie Fowler finds himself right on the edge, maintaining a slim two-point lead over Gary Woodland, who sits in 31st place. The closest five players on the outside looking in are J.T. Poston, Nicolai Højgaard, Alex Noren, Jake Knapp, and Robert MacIntyre, whereas Bud Cauley, Kurt Kitayama, Adam Scott, Tom Kim, and Ryan Fox occupy the final five spots just inside the top 30.
