Golfer Keegan Bradley entered the FedEx Cup playoffs as the No. 50 seed, but after his stunning victory at the BMW Championship last week, he is now eligible to play in the Tour Championship, which only the top 30 players on this year’s tour are allowed to participate in. The Tour Championship begins this week, runs from August 29 to September 1 and will be played at East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta, Georgia.

At 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 qualified for the BMW Championship, played at Castle Pines Golf Club in Castle Rock, Colorado. And the top 30 players from BMW now compete in the grand finale, the Tour Championship, which offers a top prize of $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.

Date: 15 August – 1 September

TV channels: NBC, Golf Channel

Streaming: Peacock, ESPN+

The FedEx Cup playoffs began on August 15 and ran through September 1. The first tournament of the playoffs, the FedEx St. Jude Championship, ran from August 15 to 18. The second, the BMW Championship, ran from August 22 to 25. The final tournament, the TOUR Championship, runs from August 29 to September 1.
