Who is playing in the BMW Championship 2025? Field Explored

The field for the BMW Championship 2025 is all set following the final round of the FedEx Cup St. Jude Championship. This week witnessed some shuffling in the standings, both at the top as well as at the bottom. Many big names moved up, while some notable names fought hard to get inside the top 50.

The BMW Championship 2025 is set to take place from Thursday, August 14, to Sunday, August 17, at Caves Valley Golf Club in Owings Mills, Maryland. The second event of the FedEx Cup Playoffs will feature the top 50 players in the FedEx Cup standings.

Following the FedEx Cup St. Jude Championship, Kurt Kitayama (T9), Bud Cauley (T14), Rickie Fowler (T6), Jhonattan Vegas (T14) and J.T. Poston (T22) were among the big movers as they qualified for next week’s event.

On the other hand, Aldrich Potgieter (T59), Jordan Spieth (T38), Jake Knapp (T62), Wyndham Clark (T56), and Min Woo Lee (T68) slipped out of the top 50 after a poor outing in Memphis. Chris Kirk had a great week and tied for ninth, but could only move to 51st.

The BMW Championship will feature regular names like Scottie Scheffler, Collin Morikawa and Justin Thomas, while Rory McIlroy is also returning to action after skipping the Memphis event.
