Aronimink Golf Club will host the third event of the FedExCup Playoffs.  It last hosted a PGA TOUR event in 2010 and 2011, but has since been restored with many of its original characteristics.  Specifically, the fairways are wider, greens are bigger, and over 100 bunkers have been added.  Aronimink Golf Club is still a par 70 course but now measures 7,267 yards in length.  Keeping the ball in play and accurate approach shots are necessary in order to go well here.  Ultimately, it will come down to the golfers who have their tee-to-green game working and also putting well.  They will be the ones threatening to win the BMW Championship come Sunday afternoon.  Finally, the current weather forecast for Newtown Square, Pennsylvania calls for temperatures in the low-80s with light breezes during the opening round.  Friday then cools down a bit and there is a chance of a thunderstorm.  Over the weekend, temperatures remain cool with a chance of rain on Saturday.  Winds may increase on Sunday during the final round.

The FGI PGA Interactive Model is going to assist us with our lineup building process because it identifies the golfers with solid Recent Form and whose Key Stats set up nicely at Aronimink Golf Club.  It also allows us to factor in Tournament History as well as an emphasis on Vegas (odds to win).  Below are the FGI PGA Interactive Model Overall weightings I will be using this week along with the Key Stats weightings for the BMW Championship provided by our friends at Fantasy Golf Metrics:
