With only two events remaining in the \u201cFedExCup Fall\u201d, the Tour heads to the island of Bermuda for the seventh edition of the Bermuda Championship. Located on high ground overlooking the Atlantic Ocean on the western shore of Southampton Parish, Port Royal Golf Course is one of the world\u2019s most scenic island courses. Known as one of\u00a0Jack Nicklaus<\/span>\u2018 all-time favorites, it is a government-run municipal course designed by Robert Trent Jones in 1970.<\/p>\n

One of the shortest courses played in the PGA Tour\u2019s annual rotation, it is characterized by its hilly terrain, challenging par-3s, and the seemingly ever-present threat of windy conditions on much of the course. It features one of the most dramatic holes on the PGA Tour, the 16th, a 230-yard par 3 perched on a clifftop ledge overlooking the Atlantic.<\/p>\n

While any type of player can win here, past winners have included some of the best putters on the Tour, including the likes of\u00a0Seamus Power<\/span>,\u00a0Lucas Herbert<\/span>,\u00a0Brendon Todd<\/span>, and\u00a0Brian Gay<\/span>. Fairways are narrow, and wedge opportunities are plentiful. This leads to numerous short to mid-range birdie putts that players must consistently make to remain in contention.<\/p>\n

Scoring has been as low as -24 both when Todd won in 2019 and in 2023 when\u00a0Camilo Villegas<\/span>\u00a0emerged victorious. But the prevailing conditions of Bermuda often add volatility, making for an unpredictable week. This was the case in both 2020 and 2021 when Gay and Herbert won at only -15.<\/p>\n

The Field<\/h2>\n

This week\u2019s Bermuda Championship is critical for players hovering around the top 100 bubble, with those finishing inside that number securing PGA Tour cards for 2026. Golfers like\u00a0Beau Hossler<\/span>,\u00a0Max McGreevy<\/span>,\u00a0David Lipsky<\/span>, and\u00a0Victor Perez<\/span>\u00a0are right on the bubble of that magic number in the standings. They, along with numerous other golfers in the field, will be hoping for a big performance this week.<\/p>\n

In what is most likely the weakest field this year on the PGA Tour, Bank of Utah Championship winner\u00a0Michael Brennan<\/span>\u00a0and\u00a0Sam Stevens<\/span>\u00a0are the only two players in the field ranked among the top 50 in the world. Other notables include\u00a0Sahith Theegala<\/span>,\u00a0Nico Echavarria<\/span>,\u00a0Thorbjorn Olesen<\/span>,\u00a0Matt Wallace<\/span>,\u00a0Luke Clanton<\/span>, and\u00a0Eric Cole<\/span>. Past champions in the field include last year\u2019s winner,\u00a0Rafael Campos<\/span>, Camilo Villegas, and Seamus Power.<\/p>\n
