BMW Championship picks 2026: Sooner or later, Sam Burns is going to win

The 2026 BMW Championship tees off at Bellerive in St. Louis this week, featuring 50 of the PGA Tour's top players competing in the FedEx Cup Playoffs event. World number one Scottie Scheffler is considered the heavy favorite despite not winning at his usual rate this season, while Golf Digest experts are touting Sam Burns, who has elevated his ball-striking, as a strong contender. The Golf Digest betting panel, including analysts from Underdog, Betsperts, and Read The Line, has also highlighted Cameron Young at 22-1 odds as a notable pick.
