How to watch the FedEx Cup golf tournament today
With the PGA Tour regular season now over, the FedEx Cup playoffs begin this week with the first of three events, the FedEx St. Jude Championship, beginning August 15. In the FedEx Cup, players earn points throughout the regular season and the top 70 are invited to compete in the FedEx St. Jude Championship, played at TPC Southwind in Memphis, Tennessee.
The top 50 players from St. Jude’s qualify for the BMW Championship at Castle Pines Golf Club in Colorado. And the top 30 players who complete the BMW compete in the grand finale, the Tour Championship. This year, Olympic gold medalists Scottie Scheffler, Xander Schauffele and Rory McIlroy lead the field at the St. Jude Championship, but in the end there can only be one winner with $25 million.
All the great FedEx Cup action will be brought to fans on NBC, Golf Channel, ESPN+ and Peacock; and those are just a few of the ways to watch the FedEx Cup on TV and streaming.
