OPEN MINI PLAYERThe 2023 BMW Championship will start Thursday, with the PGA Tour event at Olympia Fields Country Club near Chicago, Ill., welcoming 50 world-class players to the latest event of 2023 on the PGA Tour schedule.
The BMW Championship is the second leg of the playoffs, which now starts with 50 players in Chicagoland for a cut to the top 30 and the season-ending Tour Championship after this week's event.
Olympia Fields hosts again for the first time in three years. The 2020 event was brutally difficult for scoring, and it sounds like we can expect similarly difficult conditions.
