The FedEx Cup Playoffs field is officially set with the 70 top players from the 2026 PGA Tour season heading to TPC Southwind in Memphis for the\u00a0FedEx St. Jude Championship<\/strong>. They\u2019ll all be looking to secure a spot in next week\u2019s BMW Championship. A win isn\u2019t necessary to move on, but a winning bet or two sure would be nice, right? We\u2019re here to help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FedEx Cup Playoffs format<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For those unfamiliar with the format, the\u00a0FedEx Cup Playoffs<\/strong>\u00a0consist of three tournaments across three weeks, culminating with the Tour Championship at the end of August.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 70 players<\/a> with the most FedEx Cup points following last week\u2019s Wyndham Championship qualified for this week. That number will be cut to the Top 50 for the BMW Championship. Following the BMW, the Top 30 will advance to the Tour Championship, where the best score across four rounds at East Lake Golf Club will be crowned the Tour Champion for 2026. 
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But what does this structure actually mean for this week? Well, you can essentially count on the very top of the FedEx Cup leaderboard making it to the BMW, but players hovering around and below that Top-50 watermark will need to get a bit more aggressive if they want to live to play another tournament. With that being said, there are plenty of things to talk about (and bets to be made) for this week specifically, so let\u2019s get into it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
