Rory McIlroy was the PGA Tour’s last winner at Crooked Stick. Who will follow in his footsteps this week at the BMW Championship?

With more than half of the playoff field eliminated, the race for the FedEx Cup is starting to really heat up. While seventy players will tee it up at the BMW Championship at Crooked Stick Golf Club this week, only thirty will advance to the Tour Championship.

Most golf fans know Crooked Stick as the site of John Daly’s improbable win at the 1991 PGA Championship. The ninth alternate heading into the week, Daly used his length to overpower the course and win by three strokes. Since then, the Pete Dye design has hosted two more major events, albeit on different tours: the 1993 U.S. Women’s Open and the 2009 U.S. Senior Open.

This will be Crooked Stick’s second time hosting the BMW Championship. The last time was four years ago, when Rory McIlroy put on an outstanding show to pick up his third win in four starts. The winning score was 20-under, so expect to see some birdies this week.

Who will follow in the footsteps of Daly and McIlroy and become a PGA Tour winner at Crooked Stick this week? I can offer some names to watch. Here are the ten best bets for success at the BMW Championship.
