There’s a lot on the line this week outside of Chicago.
Not only are the top 50 battling for the BMW Championship title and an improved starting position at next week’s Tour Championship, but several Americans golfers are fighting for one of the three available automatic qualifying spots for the upcoming Ryder Cup.
Scottie Scheffler, Wyndham Clark and Patrick Cantlay are already on the roster, but the final three automatic spots, currently held by Brian Harman, Brooks Koepka and Max Homa, are up for grabs and those three could all slide out of the top six come Sunday night.
Here are some possible scenarios that could unfold at Olympia Fields’ North Course and how they would affect which players walk off the course happy Sunday evening when the automatic qualifiers become official.
