BMW Championship (2nd Round - 18 Holes) 12BET PGA Tour - 9/16 11:20PM(GMT+8)




The PGA Tour BMW Championship is the tournament traditionally known as the Western Open. It assumed the BMW Championship monicker beginning in 2007, when the event also became one of the four FedEx Cup "playoff" tournaments. This tournament is the oldest "regular" event on the PGA Tour, dating to 1899; only the majors U.S. Open and British Open are older. (This tournament should not be confused with the European Tour's BMW PGA Championship.)


The Western Open was first played in 1899, making it the second-oldest professional golf tournament in America after the U.S. Open.
In its first two years, this was a two-round tournament. It expanded to four rounds in 1902 (there was no tournament in 1900). Willie Smith was the first winner in 1899, and Willie Anderson the first winner of the event at 72 holes.
Kelly is in the field for the BMW Championship this week. Kelly finished 10th with a nine-under at the Deutsche Bank Championship last week. He did not play at the BMW Championship last year. Kelly has three top-25 finishes in three playoff events this year.8
