The 2026 BMW begins this week at Bellerive Country Club in St. Louis, Mo. Here’s everything you need to know to watch the PGA Tour tournament, including a full BMW Championship TV schedule, streaming information and complete tee times for the first and second rounds once they are released.
How to watch BMW Championship
This week’s BMW Championship is the second FedEx Cup playoff event and the final tournament before the season-ending Tour Championship. Fifty players have survived to play this week, while many popular pros did not make the cut, including Jordan Spieth, Max Homa and Michael Kim.
But most of the biggest PGA Tour stars are in the field, including Scottie Scheffler, who has a huge lead in the FedEx Cup standings following his win at last week’s FedEx St. Jude Championship.
Rory McIlroy is also teeing it up at the BMW, but he’s in a much different place than Scheffler. McIlroy played last week, too, but he struggled mightily and nearly finished in last place.
Scheffler, McIlroy and 48 other players will be battling across Bellerive CC this week hoping to make it into the top 30 to qualify for the Tour Championship.
CBS, Golf Channel and ESPN will provide TV coverage of the 2026 BMW Championship, while PGA Tour Live on ESPN+ will offer streaming coverage and featured group coverage. Paramount+ will air simulcasts of CBS’s coverage.
