The newly appointed Team USA Ryder Cup captain Keegan Bradley won his seventh PGA Tour victory on Sunday at the BMW Championship. It is the second time he has won this event in his career.
Bradley came into this week ranked No. 50, making him the last man in the field. He did not know if he would get into the field in Colorado, but he did.
A week later, he won $3,600,000 and 2,000 FedEx Cup points. The 38-year-old signed for an even-par round to finish at 12 overall and defeat three players at 11-under.

He moves from 50 to No. 4 in the FedEx Cup standings. The New Englander wanted to get to Atlanta badly to prove he deserves a spot on the President’s Cup team and possibly next year’s Ryder Cup team as a playing captain. Bradley did what he set out to do, which was huge for him.
Sam Burns, Ludvig Åberg and Adam Scott tied for second and won $1,503,333.38. This finish pushed Scott into the Top 30, and will also head to Atlanta.
Let’s look at how much money the rest of the field earned in Colorado.
