By TERRY LYONS, Editor of Digital Sports Desk
GREENSBORO - The 2025 Wyndham Championship is the 36th and last event of the 36 scheduled events in the PGA Tour’s FedEx Cup Regular Season. Since the inception of the FedExCup in 2007, the Wyndham Championship has played host to the FedEx Cup Regular Season finale (since 2008 at Sedgefield Country Club).
This year marks the 86th annual Wyndham Championship, having been included on the PGA TOUR schedule since 1938 (the seventh-longest running TOUR event excluding the majors).
Following the Wyndham Championship, the Top 70 players in the FedEx Cup standings will advance to the FedEx St. Jude Championship. Every player ranked from Nos. 60-80 in the FedExCup standings are in the field: Tony Finau (No. 60), Rickie Fowler (No. 61), Davis Riley (No. 62), Kevin Yu (No. 63), Erik van Rooyen (No. 64), Nico Echavarria (No. 65), Emiliano Grillo (No. 66), Cam Davis (No. 67), Patrick Rodgers (No. 68), Byeong Hun An (No. 69), Matti Schmid (No. 70), Nicolai Højgaard (No. 71), Keith Mitchell (No. 72), Chris Kirk (No. 73), Christiaan Bezuidenhout (No. 74), Gary Woodland (No. 75), Kevin Roy (No. 76), Alex Smalley (No. 77), Davis Thompson (No. 78), Eric Cole (No. 79), William Mouw (No. 80).

Notes
Jackson Koivun, the No. 1-ranked player in the World Amateur Golf Ranking, is competing at The Wyndham on a sponsor exemption. The rising Auburn University junior became the third player to earn TOUR status through PGA TOUR University Accelerated (joining Vanderbilt’s Gordon Sargent and Florida State’s Luke Clanton).
In the last two seasons, only Lucas Glover has played his way into the Playoffs at the Wyndham Championship - (2023/WON, moving from 112th to 49th).
A whopping 91 players entering the Wyndham Championship have a chance to move into the Top 70 of the FedExCup with a win this week.

On This Day in Golf History
July 30, 2015 - Rickie Fowler finished his first-round at the Quicken Loans National with a hole-in-one at the par-3 ninth hole at the Robert Trent Jones Golf Club in Gainesville, Virginia. Fowler then treated the attending media to beers, sending buckets of beer to the media room after the round. He ended up finishing second to tournament winner Troy Merritt. - Courtesy of Randy Walker, Author of On This Day in Golf History, available via Amazon.com and by clicking HERE
