St. Louis, MO  – August 23, 2026… BMW congratulates Wyndham Clark on winning the 2026 BMW Championship today at Bellerive Country Club in St. Louis, Missouri.

Closing out an outstanding week at Bellerive Country Club, Wyndham Clark finished at 17-under-par 263 to win the 2026 BMW Championship by three strokes over Patrick Cantlay and advance to next week's TOUR Championship at East Lake Golf Club. Clark entered the final round with a five-shot lead, was caught by Rory McIlroy on the back nine and then birdied each of the final three holes to secure the victory.

“I had to grind all day. That's kind of what we love as athletes and we chase after the moment,” said Clark after closing with three straight birdies to earn his first BMW Championship victory at Bellerive Country Club. “As much as I would've liked to have run away with this, it was fun getting the juices flowing, and really feel the angst coming down at the end.”

Sebastian Mackensen, President and CEO, BMW of North America, was joined by Chairman of the Western Golf Association, Andrew Langan for the presentation of the BMW Championship and J.K. Wadley trophies on the 18th green following play.

“Each year, this event brings together the world’s best golfers, passionate fans and valued partners for an unforgettable week of championship golf,” said Sebastian Mackensen, President and CEO, BMW of North America. “As we celebrate 20 years as title sponsor, the extraordinary skill, precision and performance displayed on the course reflect the same pursuit of excellence that defines the BMW brand. Most importantly, the tournament’s impact extends well beyond the course, creating life-changing educational opportunities through the Evans Scholars Foundation. Congratulations to Wyndham Clark on an exceptional victory, and thank you to everyone who made this year’s championship such a tremendous success.”

The 2026 BMW Championship marked BMW's 20th year as title sponsor and the tournament's return to Bellerive Country Club for the first time since 2008. Throughout championship week, BMW welcomed fans with interactive experiences, premium hospitality, displays of the all-new BMW X5, the all-electric BMW iX3 and the updated BMW 7 Series, and the BMW Experience featuring custom vehicles inspired by PGA TOUR professionals. BMW also served as the exclusive presenting partner of Chasing Sunday: The BMW Championship, offering fans behind-the-scenes access throughout the week.

In addition to crowning one of golf's top players, the BMW Championship also demonstrated its lasting impact through the Evans Scholars Foundation. Since becoming title sponsor in 2007, BMW has helped raise more than $63 million for the Foundation, creating life-changing educational opportunities for more than 4,300 deserving young caddies through full tuition and housing scholarships.

One of the week's most meaningful moments came as BMW and the Western Golf Association recognized Juliya Tabaka as the newest BMW Hole-in-One Scholar. Tabaka's scholarship was made possible by Akshay Bhatia's ace during the third round of the 2025 BMW Championship, continuing one of the tournament's signature traditions of transforming unforgettable moments on the course into life-changing educational opportunities

Beyond the competition, fans enjoyed interactive experiences throughout the BMW Experience, premium hospitality venues, custom BMW vehicles inspired by PGA TOUR professionals, and displays of BMW's newest vehicles, including the all-new BMW X5, the all-electric BMW iX3 and the updated BMW 7 Series. Together, these experiences showcased BMW's commitment to innovation, performance, and the premium customer experience.
