BMW Championship Wrap-Up

We had quite an adventure at the BMW Championship last week. We figured we would gather up all of our content in one place. So here we go. BMW Championship Pro-Am I got a chance.

BMW Championship Pro-Am

I got a chance to play in the Pro-Am with Jon Rahm, Brian Urlacher, and Ben Higgins. D.J. came along and documented the entire experience.

The week started with a Pro-Am pairings party at Wrigley Field, hosted by Dan Hicks and Matt Kuchar. Kuch was letting it fly…

Kuch is in his element. Just called Na slow. Said Xander "Souflee." Made several borderline jokes. This is the Kuch we've been waiting for. pic.twitter.com/zeUmfMOKq8

The TOUR tagged along to shoot a quick video about the drivable 15th hole:

Oktoberfest

After years of making fun of the size of Justin Rose’s shades on twitter, we told him about it and he was all in for a picture:

Following the Action

Other than Augusta this is as well-run a golf tournament as I've seen. On point.



BMW at Aronimink next year will be straight fire.

Leishman's always been substance over style. But his tee shot on 17 was visceral. Flagged it from 225 yards. I legit thought it was an ace. pic.twitter.com/YKxdtN883F

This whole week was nuts, but among the best parts was getting to watch @marcleish put his foot on the gas. He's the realest. pic.twitter.com/FXDDcqKcet

Such an underrated sauce move. Matty Kelly's got the flag removed from the pin before the final putt drops. Big ups to Leish!

Thanks a ton to BMW for having us out last week. It was a lot of fun, and it was amazing to see how well run that event was. Special thanks also to the Western Golf Association for hosting the tournament, and their significant efforts to give the fans a fantastic experience. The bleacher setups, the ropes, the amphitheaters, and the views were all fantastic, and was a great experience for anyone that attended it.
