Justin Thomas led by six going into Sunday, and with a -4 68 he did enough to win the BMW Championship by three at -25 263 and that is seven shots lower than what Tiger Woods shot at Medinah when he won the 2006 PGA Championship. Woods by the way did not quaify to defend his Tour Championship title, and will now concentrate on his captains role for the Presidents Cup.

The victory for Thomas gives him a two-shot lead starting the Tour Championship next week as the top 30 players in the FedEx Cup chase the $15 million prize.
The field will have a staggered start based on their position in the FedEx Cup, meaning Thomas starts at 10-under par, right down to #25 who will begin at -1.

Corey Conners (69) T7 at -15 to finish 23rd in the Fed Ex standings and earn a spot with the top 30 at the Tour Championship. He will start there at -1.

After beginning the season with only a partial PGA Tour card, Conners has now earned a spot in all four majors next season, the World Golf Championships and a full tour card for 2020.

Adam Hadwin foundered with a +4 76 T43rd at -6.
