It’s an important week on the PGA Tour at the Wyndham Championship, the final event before the FedEx Cup playoffs gets underway.
The top-125 in the FedEx Cup standings will progress to the playoffs after this week, so it’s an important one for those around the bubble. At the top end of the standings, it will also be an exciting week, with a strong field assembled for the week in North Carolina.
Last year, it was a dramatic conclusion to the Wyndham, as Kevin Kisner prevailed in a six-man playoff that also featured Branden Grace, Kevin Na, Adam Scott, Roger Sloan and Si Woo Kim. Sedgefield Country Club has yielded some pretty low scoring over the past few years, with Kisner’s total of 15-under-par a relatively tame comparison to previous editions.
Since it moved to Sedgefield, North Carolina, a Donald Ross designed course, winners have included Brandt Snedeker, Henrik Stenson and Patrick Reed.
Let’s take a look at what you need to know before play gets underway.
