Favoritos del Campeonato BMW 2023
The historic Rory McIlroy arrives as the great favorite of the tournament. The Northern Irishman is one of the greatest legends of the sport, winning this year’s Genesis Scottish Open in July, beating Scotland’s Robert MacIntyre with -15 over par.
He also won the BMW Championship in 2012, defeating the historic Phil Mickelson and the Englishman Lee Westwood, with a score of 268. In his resume, the 34-year-old Northern Irishman has won the PGA Tournament twice, the US Open once and The Open Championship once.

Scottie Scheffler is second on the list of candidates. The American has had a fantastic year, winning the WM Phoenix Open, beating Canadian Nick Taylor, and The Player Championship, beating Englishman Tyrrell Hatton. In addition, Scheffler had a great year in the majors, despite not being champion. He was top 10 in the Masters Tournament, second in the PGA Championship, third in the US Open, and 23rd in The Open Championship.
As a curious fact, this year the American joined a select group with his compatriots Tiger Woods and Jack Nicklaus, as the only ones to win the Masters Tournament and The Players Championship in 12 months.

Completing the podium of favorites is the Spaniard Jon Rahm, one of the best golfers in the world and the leader of the ranking with 3117 points, winning four trophies and finishing nine times in the top 10 in 2023. This year he won the Tournament of Champions, The American Express, the Los Angeles Open, and the Masters at Augusta. The last one is, by far the most important of all.
He became the fourth golfer from his country to achieve this title, after Severiano Ballesteros, José María Olazábal, and Sergio García Fernández. In 2023 the Iberian was also in the top 10 of the US Open and finished in the top 50 of the PGA Tournament.

The current two-time tournament champion, Patrick Cantlay, is fourth on the list of candidates. Meanwhile, the young Norwegian Viktor Hovland is fifth. Hovland, a professional since 2019, has finished in the top 10 of the Masters Tournament and the PGA Championship, so he is hoping for his first major win of the year. So far in 2023, he has won the Memorial Tournament.
A pesar de no estar entre los 5 mejores candidatos, los golfistas Max Homa, Wyndham Clark y Ricky Fowler deben ser tenidos en cuenta.
Homa this year won the Farmers Insurance Open, with six under par, beating Keegan Bradley. Also, he is coming off a top-10 finish at The Open Championship.
Luego llega el turno de Clark, campeón de este año del US Open, derrotando al histórico Rory Mcllroy.
For his part, Ricky Fowler, 34, already won this year the Rocket Mortgage Classic, defeating Canadian Adam Hadwin and American Collin Morikawa.
