The final round of the 2024 BMW Championship is upon us. Below, find everything you need to know about tournament purse, including prize money, winner’s share and complete payout information.
BMW Championship Final Round Preview
From a financial standpoint, there’s no better time to perform than the FedEx Cup playoffs, and the contenders at the top of the leaderboard heading into the final round of the BMW Championship are prime examples of just how important one week of play can be.
Fifty-four-hole leader Keegan Bradley was the last man into the BMW Championship field this week, ranked No. 50 on the FedEx Cup points list. He’s capitalizing on the opportunity in a big way, holding a one-shot lead over Adam Scott with 18 holes to play.
Scott, too, was outside the last playoffs cutline, ranked No. 41 heading into this week. He needed a solid finish in order to be eligible for next week’s season finale, the Tour Championship at East Lake, which is open to only the top 30 players. If Bradley or Scott can manage to claim the trophy on Sunday afternoon, they’ll launch themselves all the way to No. 4 on the points list, behind only Hideki Matsuyama, Xander Schauffele and Scottie Scheffler.
Contender Alex Noren is another potential bubble-buster. Ranked No. 45 heading into the week, he trails Bradley’s lead by two and is T5. If his standing remains unchanged, he’ll punch his ticket to East Lake at No. 22.
Needless to say, there’s a lot on the line this week, and in addition to the eye-popping bonuses that await the top 30 players who qualify for next week’s Tour Championship, there’s a Signature-Event-level purse of $20 million up for grabs as well. That means $3.6 million for the winner, and seven figures for second and third too.
