Justin Thomas, Jon Rahm and Dustin Johnson head up a field of 30 of the most in-form golfers in the running to win the FedExCup and its $15 million jackpot. Read on for full details on how to get a live stream of the PGA Tour Championship with our guide below.

Indicating just how ferocious the competition has been in this year's FedExCup playoffs, big names such as Tiger Woods, Tommy Fleetwood, Jordan Speith, Justin Rose, Rickie Fowler and Ian Poulter have all missed out on qualifying for this year's finale.

World No 1 Johnson enters this week's action at the top of the standings and begins on 10 under par as per the event's strokes-based advantage system.

That puts him two shots ahead of Jon Rahm whose storming display at Olympia Fields last week was capped by a stunning 66-foot birdie to defeat Johnson.

Justin Thomas begins three strokes back in third ahead of Webb Simpson, with Collin Morikawa rounding off the top five following his victories at the Workday Charity Open and the PGA Championship.

Last year's FedExCup champion Rory McIilroy isn't out of the reckoning and will tee off with a score of three under, but will need to be at the peak if he is to mount a defence of his title.

Read on to find out how to watch the PGA Tour Championship no matter where you are in the world.
