As the top players in the FedEx standings head to Colorado this weekend for the BMW Championship, the top players in the Charles Schwab Cup Money will be heading to Michigan. From Ernie Els to major championship winners Stewart Cink, Bernhard Langer, and KJ Choi, all will be a part of the 78-player field.
Last year, Vijay Singh won the championship with a 14-under, defeating Jeff Maggert by one stroke. It is a rather exciting event to watch. The seventh edition of the championship is scheduled from August 23 to August 25 at the Warwick Hills Golf & Country Club. Here’s how you can witness the action from the comfort of your home.
