The middle jewel of the FedEx Cup Playoffs is upon us, as we return to Olympia Fields for the second time in four years for the latest installment of the BMW Championship. Considering that last week’s playoff tournament had a jaw-dropping total payout, this week’s event in Illinois is also bound to deliver a sizeable prize pot when all is said and done.
