Breaking down this week’s BMW Championship Purse, Prize money, and Payouts by position at Olympia Fields. 

The FedEx Cup Playoffs returned to Olympia Fields this week for the first time since Jon Rahm’s epic win here in 2020. After last week’s FedEx St. Jude Championship, the Top 50 in the FedEx Cup standings made the journey to Illinois for the 2023 BMW Championship.

Scottie Scheffler, World No. 1 and winner of this year’s WM Phoenix Open and PLAYERS Championship found himself in a share of the lead following 54 holes of action in this year’s second of three playoff events.

Both Scheffler and 2023 RBC Heritage Champion, Matt Fitzpatrick, took the lead of eleven-under-par into Sunday’s final round of this year’s BMW Championship.

2023 Open Champion Brian Harman found himself just a shot behind the leaders after 54 holes. A host of other big names including, Max Homa, Viktor Hovland, Rory McIlroy, and others all had a legitimate opportunity of claiming this year’s BMW trophy heading into Sunday.

A precious spot at East Lake for the Tour Championship was on the line as the best of the best jostled to get inside of the Top 30 in the FedEx Cup standings come the end of the weekend. In addition, a massive $20 million dollar purse was also on the line. Here is this year’s complete prize breakdown for the 2023 BMW Championship.
