The European Tour stages its flagship event this week with the BMW PGA Championship taking place at Wentworth from Thursday to Sunday, with extended coverage live on Sky Sports Golf.
The tournament takes place during a defining week in the Ryder Cup calendar, as it marks the last chance for players to qualify for Team Europe, while Team USA captain Steve Stricker will reveal his six captain's picks on Wednesday.
Tyrrell Hatton returns to Wentworth to defend the title he won last year, leading a strong English challenge which also includes Matt Fitzpatrick, Tommy Fleetwood, Lee Westwood, Justin Rose and Ian Poulter, the latter two hoping to be one of the three captain's picks for Europe by Padraig Harrington, who will reveal them in a special live show on Sky Sports Golf on Sunday evening.
Fitzpatrick, Westwood and Hatton, meanwhile, will be looking to remain in the automatic qualification places this week, as will 2019 Open champion Shane Lowry.
Bernd Wiesberger, Victor Perez and Robert MacIntyre lie just outside the automatic qualification places and will be hoping to state their case for selection this week.
Norway's Viktor Hovland, who has already secured his place, has headed across the Atlantic to play at Wentworth, along with American Billy Horschel.
