BMW Championship: Form stats for this week's PGA Tour event

Jon Rahm: Tied-fifth in Tennessee on Sunday

"It’s been a quiet season by his recent standards, but the Spaniard (Jon Rahm) appears ready to end the 2021-22 PGA Tour campaign with a flourish. He tied-fifth on Sunday in Memphis where he finished four strokes off the pace."

The PGA Tour has arrived in Delaware for week two of this year's FedEx Cup Play-Offs. Words and stats are supplied by Andy Swales ...

History will be made this week at Wilmington Country Club which hosts the first ever PGA Tour event to be staged in the state of Delaware.

Having travelled almost 1,000 miles north-east from last week's event in Memphis, Tennessee, the leading 70 players in the FedEx Cup standings are invited to tee-up in what is essentially the 'semi-finals' of the Tour Play-Offs.

Laid out in the rolling hills of Delaware Valley, Wilmington's South Course was designed by Robert Trent Jones and opened in 1960.

It was renovated in 2008 and for this week's BMW Championship will be over 7,500 yards in length.

It is a heavily-bunkered parkland course with contoured greens and water coming into play on five holes.

Wilmington is approximately 30 miles south-west of Downtown Philadelphia.
