    See the full field of 50 golfers advancing to the 2024 BMW Championship at Castle Pines

    It’s the second leg of the FedEx Cup Playoffs, and there’s now just 50 golfers still alive in the PGA Tour’s 2024 season.

    The were 70 Tour pros who made the FedEx St. Jude Championship at TPC Southwind in Memphis to kick off the postseason and a few big names failed to advance to the next round.

    Castle Pines Golf Club in Castle Rock, Colorado, about 27 miles south of Denver, is hosting the PGA Tour for the first time since the 2006 International. Jason Day is the lone golfer in the 2024 BMW field who competed in that 2006 event.

    Among the biggest movers up Sunday:

    • Viktor Hovland (up 41 spots to No. 16)
    • Sam Burns (up 11 to No. 18)
    • Denny McCarthy (up 15 to No. 30)
    • Will Zalatoris (up 12 to No. 37)
    • Eric Cole (up 8 to No. 46)
    • Nick Dunlap (up 19 to No. 48)

    Hovland, Cole and Dunlap were the three to come from outside the top 50 when the week started to make the field next week.

    On the flip side, that meant three golfers slid out and there were Tom Kim (down 8 to No. 51), Mackenzie Hughes (down 4 to No. 52) and Jake Knapp (down 9 to No. 59).

    The total purse for the BMW will be $20 million with $4 million going to the winner. It’s the last tournament of the season that offers official prize money. The Tour Championship at East Lake doles out what the Tour considers “bonus” money.

    Here’s the 50 golfers advancing to the 2024 BMW Championship, including the U.S. Ryder Cup captain for 2025 who made it in right on the number:
