Hideki Matsuyama won the FedEx Cup St. Jude Championship on Sunday, and as the second round in the Fedex Cup Playoffs gears up, he’s looking for win number two. The top players coming out of St. Jude will join him at the BMW Championship at Castle Pines Golf Club in Colorado (with the exception of Cameron Smith who withdrew due to a hip injury).

In the FedEx Cup, players accrue points all throughout the regular season, and the top 70 are invited to play in the FedEx St. Jude Championship, held at TPC Southwind in Memphis, Tennessee. The top 50 to come out of St. Jude’s are be eligible for the BMW Championship which will begin on Thursday, August 22 at Castle Pines. And the top 30 to finish BMW will compete in the grand finale, the Tour Championship, which promises a top prize of $25 million when it’s all over.

All of this sweet FedEx Cup action will be delivered to fans on NBC, Golf Channel, ESPN+ and Peacock; which are just a few of the ways to watch the FedEx Cup on TV and streaming.
