On August 17th, 2025, Robert MacIntyre fought off Scottie Scheffler and a hostile crowd at the BMW Championship, Akshay Bhatia aced his way into the Tour Championship bubble, and duels were set for both the LIV Indianapolis title and the season-long championship.

BMW CHAMPIONSHIP

• Robert MacIntyre saw his lead shrink but his fight grow, battling brutal pins, a charging Scottie Scheffler, and a hostile crowd. The drama peaked when he drained a par putt after a heckler's shout, silencing the gallery.
• "You give me crap, I'll give you crap back," MacIntyre said of the incident, later punctuating his round with a 41-foot birdie on the 18th green.
• The other hero of the day, Akshay Bhatia, made a hole-in-one on the 17th to jump from a projected 31st to 30th in the FedEx Cup, then announced he's giving the BMW car he won to his caddie.

LIV GOLF INDIANAPOLIS

• One day after Sebastián Muñoz shot a historic 59, Dustin Johnson erased the seven-shot deficit with a blistering 64, setting up a final-round duel for the trophy between the two leaders.
• "I feel like I'm in control of my golf ball," DJ said after putting a new mini driver in the bag and tying Muñoz at the top.
• The real championship drama is one group behind, as Joaquín Niemann and Jon Rahm enter Sunday tied for the season-long points title and will play head-to-head for the grand prize.
