There’s just 18 holes left at the 2025 BMW Championship<\/a>, the second leg of the three-part FedEx Cup Playoffs<\/a>. It’s crunch time at Caves Valley Golf Club in Owings Mills, Maryland.<\/p>\n

Robert MacIntyre entered the day holding onto a four-shot lead with World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler in solo second. That pair will play together again Sunday, and Scotland’s MacIntyre says he’s ready to feel the heat from the American crowd<\/a>. It figures to be a two-horse race, with Ludvig Aberg the only other player within six strokes of MacIntyre to start the day, but there’s always the chance of someone charging from the back of the pack.<\/p>\n

Scottie Scheffler takes the solo lead at the BMW Championship<\/p>\n

Six holes is all Scottie Scheffler needed to erase a four-shot deficit he faced to start the day.<\/p>\n

He made yet another birdie with another perfect approach shot into the par-4 7th, while MacIntyre was left scrambling for par after he missed the green. Scheffler is 2 under for the day and has moved to 14 under for the tournament, one shot ahead of MacIntyre, who’s 3 over through seven holes.<\/p>\n

The World No. 1 is inevitable.<\/p>\n

Scottie Scheffler and Robert MacIntyre tied for lead after five holes<\/p>\n

It took just five holes for Robert MacIntyre’s four-shot lead to disappear.<\/p>\n

Just like first hole, it was a two-shot swing at the par-4 5th. Scottie Scheffler hit a beautiful approach and sunk a 12-foot putt for birdie, while MacIntyre missed the green with his second shot, forcing him to pitch on and ultimately two-putt for bogey.<\/p>\n

It’s about as bad of a start as anyone could imagine for the 29-year-old from Scotland. He’s 3 over through five holes and back to 13 under for the tournament, and the World No. 1 is threatening again.<\/p>\n

Robert MacIntyre’s lead is back to two<\/p>\n

Scottie Scheffler made bogey on No. 3 while MacIntyre made par, then both men made somewhat disappointing pars at the par-5 4th \u2014 a hole both players birdied in each of the first three rounds.<\/p>\n

Robert MacIntyre starts with two bogeys, Scottie Scheffler just one back<\/p>\n

We have a golf tournament, folks.<\/p>\n

Robert MacIntyre entered the day with a four-shot lead and after two holes, that lead is just one. MacIntyre made bogey on the par-4 first and the par-3 second, dropping him back to 14 under, while World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler went birdie-par to get to 13 under.<\/p>\n

It’s a nightmare start for MacIntyre and it’s evident that Scheffler can smell blood in the water.<\/p>\n

Scottie Scheffler cuts Robert MacIntyre’s lead in half with two-shot swing at No. 1 <\/p>\n

The final group is off and running Sunday at Caves Valley, and Scottie Scheffler is already putting the pressure on.<\/p>\n

The World No. 1 threw a dart into the green on the par-4 first hole and rolled in a short-range birdie putt to get to 13 under. Moments later, Robert MacIntyre missed his par putt and suddenly his lead has been cut to just two shots after one hole.<\/p>\n

Tommy Fleetwood’s putt drops after a short wait<\/p>\n

Wait for it… wait for it… birdie! Tommy Fleetwood moved into the top 5 on the leaderboard with this putt from long range.<\/p>\n

McIlroy has had an up-and-down week at Caves Valley, from day-to-day and from hole-to-hole. After a 4-under 66 on Friday, he turned in a rollercoaster round of 71 on Saturday which features four birdies, three bogeys and a double bogey.<\/p>\n

The World No. 2 is also No. 2 in the FedEx Cup Standings, so he has no reason to worry about earning a spot in the Tour Championship next week, and a good round on Sunday could give him a little momentum heading into East Lake, where he’s won three times before.<\/p>\n

McIlroy is playing with Jacob Bridgeman, who is in a battle for a spot in the Tour Championship, sitting at No. 27 in the standings entering Sunday. Keep tabs on who’s in and who’s out of the top 30 with our live FedEx Cup bubble tracker.<\/a><\/p>\n
