The 2025 Wyndham Championship tees off from July 31 to August 3 at Sedgefield Country Club in Greensboro, North Carolina. As the final PGA Tour event before the FedExCup Playoffs, it represents the last chance for many players to secure or improve their standing in the top 70 and earn their spot in the postseason. With a $8.2 million purse and 500 FedExCup points on the line, the stakes are high.

PGA Tour: Wyndham Championship
Top Contenders
Si Woo Kim ($33/Top 30 $2.00)
A former Wyndham champion (2016), Si Woo offers a strong ball‑striking profile that matches Sedgefield’s short, accuracy‑demanding layout. Despite mixed recent form—including a missed cut and withdrawal—his strokes‑gained approach, proximity from 150–200 yards, and par‑4 scoring on shorter courses remain elite inputs in betting models. He’s consistently ranked among the top for these stats, making him a clear fit for success at Sedgefield this week.
Aaron Rai ($28/Top 30 $1.83)
Aaron Rai is a strong candidate to go back-to-back at the Wyndham Championship after winning here in 2024 with a bogey-free final round and elite ball-striking throughout the week. Sedgefield’s tight fairways and small greens perfectly suit his precision-based game, and he ranks among the best on Tour in strokes gained on short courses. Rai’s calm under pressure was on full display last year as he outlasted Max Greyserman with smart, mistake-free golf down the stretch. With his game trending and a proven track record at this venue, he’s a legitimate threat to lift the trophy again.
Dark Horses
Max Greyserman ($61/Top 40 $2.00)
Regularly appearing in the model’s top‑tier players ranked at comparable short‑length events, Greyserman is one breakthrough performance away from putting himself on the map. Known for explosive approach stats and recent playoff experience, he’s a value pick—and a former Wyndham runner‑up—who could thrive if the putter turns hot.
Eric Cole ($141/Top 40 $2.70)
Borderline FedExCup qualification player and recent strong performer on short courses, Cole ranks solidly in strokes‑gained total across Sedgefield‑style venues. A strong finish here could propel him into the Playoffs, and he enters with momentum, making him a sneaky longshot to contend if he stays steady over four rounds.
The Field
The field is anchored by Keegan Bradley, currently world No. 8 and captaining the U.S. Ryder Cup team. With a win at the Travelers Championship already this season, he’s targeting Tour Top‑10 money list points and is a definite favorite in Greensboro.
Also expected are other high-profile veterans such as Matt Fitzpatrick, Hideki Matsuyama, Jordan Spieth, Adam Scott, and Tony Finau. Each of these players comes in with varying objectives—some chasing stronger Playoff positioning, others simply maintaining form for the postseason.
This week also features a number of players on the Playoff bubble, including Max Homa, the Højgaard twins, Eric Cole, Gary Woodland, and Byeong Hun An. For them, a strong finish here could be the difference between making the FedEx St. Jude Championship or ending their playoffs hopes early.
The Course
Sedgefield Country Club’s Ross Course, originally built in 1926 and restored in 2007, plays as a par‑70, 7,131‑yard layout with classical Donald Ross architecture. Despite its shorter length, it demands precision and accuracy from tee through green.
The course features narrow fairways, small and tricky Bermuda-green complexes, and well-placed bunkers. Historically, top performers here excel in strokes gained: approach and proximity, while avoiding loose tee shots that find hazards or thick rough.
Low scoring is common—seven of the last nine champions have posted ‑20 or better—but those successes are built on scrupulous ball-striking, wedge proficiency, and steady putting on Bermuda turf. It rewards smart thinkers over pure bombers, and putting remains a deciding factor.
