The FedExCup Playoffs roll on to the second stage with the BMW Championship, where the top 49 players in the FedExCup standings (Hideki Matsuyama withdrew on Friday) head west to Castle Pines Golf Club in Castle Rock, Colorado, just outside of Denver. Players will tee it up at mountain elevation looking to move into the top-30 threshold of the FedExCup standings and punch their ticket to East Lake for the season-ending TOUR Championship.
Adam Scott dialed back the clock for a season-best 63 on Friday, setting a new course record at Castle Pines and opening up a three-shot lead at 13-under over Keegan Bradley. Bradley entered the week as the last man in the field at No. 50 in the FedExCup, and now has the chance to advance to East Lake. Scott's record stood alone for mere hours before Ludvig Åberg matched with a 63 of his own, moving into solo third place.
Here's everything you need to know to follow the action.
