2022 BMW Championship Round 1 Showdown Picks and Strategy
The FedExCup Playoffs continue on the PGA Tour this week at Wilmington Country Club. It’s a new course, so there’s no history to lean on.    The scorecard catches your eye with length, a par 71 that stretches out past 7,500 yards. However, all three par 5s are “basically not reachable” according to Will Zalatoris. […]
