Okay, friends, the moment you've all been waiting for has arrived: the last round of the BMW Championship!
Keegan Bradley will go out this afternoon with a one-shot lead, but defending champion Adam Scott is right on his heels, breathing down his neck. These guys know everything is on the line today.
Both Keegan and Adam came into this week desperately needing a solid finish just to crack the top 30 and make it to East Lake. Now thanks to how they've played so far, they've got themselves in prime position for so much more.
A win would launch Bradley all the way up to 4th in the FedEx Cup standings. And Scott could shoot all the way up to 3rd if he ends up on top when the dust settles. That kind of climb would basically guarantee them a great spot at the Tour Championship.
Oh, and did I mention the fat prize money up for grabs? The winner Keegan Bradley is taking home a cool $3.6 million payday. Scott would cash a nice $2.16 million check with a second place finish.
On top of all the season-long importance and playoffs stakes, you gotta believe these guys will be extra fired up chasing those big payouts. Should be an insane final day of drama. I'm glued to the couch - be sure to follow along on Twitter as I live tweet the action! Best of luck to Keegan and Adam today. Now let's go watch some fireworks!
