Who will win the lion's share of the BMW Championship prize money?

Here’s how the 2025 BMW Championship prize money will be awarded at Caves Valley Golf Club for the second FedEx Cup Playoff event…

Keegan Bradley lifted the BMW Championship trophy for the second time 12 months ago, edging past Ludvig Åberg, Sam Burns, and Adam Scott by a shot to rocket up the FedEx Cup standings heading into the Tour Championship finale.

This year’s purse remains consistent at $20m with the winner set to pocket $3.6m, the same as Justin Rose bagged for his St Jude victory in last week’s first Playoff event.

The runner-up at Caves Valley Golf Club will secure a $2.16m payday, and $1.36m will go to the player finishing third. With no cut in this reduced 50-player field, every pro will take home prize money, with the player finishing in 50th position still making $66,000 for his week’s work.
