The second leg of the 2025 FedEx Cup Playoffs begins on Thursday, when Caves Valley Golf Club hosts the 2025 BMW Championship. The top 50 players in the FedEx Cup standings advanced after the first round last week, which was won by Justin Rose over J.J. Spaun in a playoff. World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler finished tied for third with Tommy Fleetwood, who held the lead heading into the final round. Scheffler is the +230 favorite (risk $100 to win $230) in the 2025 BMW Championship odds, while Rory McIlroy is +700 as he makes his return after sitting out last week.
This event was last held at Caves Valley in 2021, when Patrick Cantlay won in a playoff. Cantlay (22-1) is a two-time BMW Championship winner, so should you back him with your 2025 BMW Championship bets?

2025 BMW Championship predictions
One major surprise the model is calling for at the 2025 BMW Championship: Tommy Fleetwood, who is listed third in the odds, stumbles this week and barely cracks the top 10. Fleetwood let another 54-hole lead slip away in the first round of the playoffs, as his two-shot lead on the back nine dissipated down the stretch. He has 29 top-five finishes on the PGA Tour, but he has yet to win an event.
The 34-year-old has five top-10 finishes this season, including the sixth runner-up of his career at the Travelers Championship. He also has a pair of runner-up finishes at major championships, and he has won seven times on the DP World Tour. However, he is dealing with a severe mental hurdle at this point, so the model is fading him this week. See who else to fade here, and then use FanDuel to get $300 in bonus bets instantly.
Another one of the model’s surprising BMW Championship picks: J.J. Spaun makes a strong run, despite being a +3000 longshot. Spaun went three playoff holes with Rose on Sunday before Rose finally sealed his victory. It was another impressive showing for Spaun though, as he continues to make unexpected noise this season.
Spaun has six top-10 finishes and won the first major championship of his career at the U.S. Open. He also finished second in The Players Championship and T2 at the Cognizant Classic. Spaun ranks seventh on the PGA TOUR in total strokes gained and sixth in strokes gained approaching the green, making him a longshot to target at Caves Valley. See who else to pick here.
