Wyndham Clark captured the 2026 BMW Championship at Bellerive Country Club in St. Louis on Sunday, securing his third victory of the season and bolstering his candidacy for the PGA Tour’s Player of the Year Award. Clark finished with a score of 17-under par, edging out Patrick Cantlay by three strokes in the competition held at the prestigious Missouri venue.
The tournament featured a total purse of $20 million, with Clark claiming the first-place prize of $3.6 million for his dominant performance. Cantlay earned $2.16 million for his runner-up finish, while Rory McIlroy rounded out the top three with $1.36 million after posting a 13-under score. The remaining field shared in the substantial prize pool, with payouts distributed based on finishing position and performance throughout the event.
