At the halfway stage of the 2024 Wyndham Championship, Matt Kuchar leads the way on 12-under following two outstanding rounds of 64 at Sedgefield Country Club.
There are plenty of one-time winners chasing him, as well as several golfers who are chasing their maiden PGA Tour victory. Billy Horschel, Sungjae Im, and Adam Hadwin make up the group of experienced and multiple-time winners who are still capable of reeling the American back in.
The final event in the PGA Tour’s regular season could see anything happen, especially as the Wyndham Championship has been heavily disrupted by Tropical Storm Debby and the remaining players face the possibility of a 36-hole Sunday as organizers make every effort to complete the tournament on time.
At the very start of Sunday, there were 22 players still out on the course trying to complete their second round, with the likes of Hayden Springer knowing one birdie would have been enough to see him through.

The Englishman gave it a good go during his second round, going four-under on his back nine, but he fell agonizingly short of a third-round tee time and will begin the playoffs just below Taylor.

One of the most in-form players in the field this week, MacIntyre just could not get it going at Sedgefield and labored to scores of 68 and 70. A cold putter did not help…
