CASTLE ROCK — The 2024 BMW Championship is set for Aug. 22-25 at Castle Pines Golf Club, and the club’s experts believe the course is ready to hold up against the world’s best. Castle Pines head pro Drew Parr walked The Denver Post through the course last week. Here’s the inside information on what to watch for on each hole as the top 50 players in the FedEx Cup rankings descend upon Colorado for one of the PGA Tour’s premier tournaments.
The rough will be about four inches high across the course, and dry and fast greens — pending a sunny weekend of play — should keep the likes of Scottie Scheffler, Xander Schauffele and Rory McIlroy from tearing up the course too much. Parr predicts a winning score somewhere in the 15-under to 18-under par range, saying the course presents enough of a challenge that it will be tough for golfers to turn in low-60s rounds for four consecutive days.
The course will be set at a PGA Tour distance record of 8,130 yards, or about 600 yards longer than it played during the 21 yearsBunkers on the fairway of the 1st hole at Castle Pines Golf Club in Castle Rock, Colorado on Thursday, Aug. 15, 2024. : Beautiful views of the Front Range off the tee box, which was moved back for the BMW Championship.
