Daniel Berger withdraws before final round of 2025 BMW Championship with injury
Berger, 32, cited an injury to his finger as the reason that he wouldn't be able to play the last 18 holes of the second leg of the FedEx Cup playoffs.
Berger played the first 54 holes at Caves Valley Golf Club in Owings Mills, Maryland, in 2-over 212 after a 72 on Saturday.
Berger entered the week at No. 33 in the season-long FedEx Cup points race and needed a good week to jump into the top 30 and advance to East Lake in Atlanta for the Tour Championship.
Berger has four career Tour titles but none since the 2021 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. He was sidelined for 18 months with a back injury but regained full Tour privileges for this season with a T-2 at the 2024 RSM Classic in November and played well enough this season to make the top 50 and will be exempt into all the signature events in 2026.
Berger was scheduled to tee off at 10:45 a.m. ET on Sunday. Forty-eight competitors remain in the field. Sepp Straka withdrew ahead of the tournament citing personal reasons.

Warriors' Stephen Curry poses with epic ‘Night Night' drone show in China
The post Warriors' Stephen Curry poses with epic 'Night Night' drone show in China appeared first on ClutchPoints. Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry is making the most of the offseason by kicking off The Curry Brand World Tour's first event outside the United States. Much like the US-based Curry Camps, a selection of the best talents from the region will take part in the three-day training camp. To kick things off, Curry's arrival in Chongqing was met with a 'Night Night' drone show that lit up the city skyline. In a carousel of pictures and videos, Curry documented his first day in the city. It included a picture of himself posing with the drone show in the background, along with a clip featuring a beaming Curry watching on. 'Chongqing meets Curry,' read the drone. 'Chongqing, you showed out. 🔥Day 1 of the Curry Brand China Tour was packed with Curry Camp, Curry Con, and so many moments in between. The fans brought incredible energy from the jump, and getting to connect with city executives gave us a deeper look at what makes this place so special,' Stephen Curry wrote on Instagram. The rest of the carousel featured clips from the other events the player was part of. The likes of Azzi Fudd, Seth Curry, and Zhu Zheng, the first Chinese athlete signed to Under Armour's Curry Brand, also featured in the clips. Per NBC, the veteran was full of praise for the drone show. 'That [show] was crazy, probably my favorite thing right now. We have our camp and 'CurryCon' going on across the city, which is pretty awesome. But I just appreciate the fans and the love and energy that's here; you can hear all the people down, just celebrating and enjoying being a part of my journey with me,' he said. The event and the love he has received is testament to the influence Stephen Curry has garnered over an illustrious career, which will soon enter its 17th year in the NBA.
