After Kurt Kitayama produced a stunning display over the weekend to claim the 3M Open, the PGA Tour moves to the Wyndham Championship at Sedgefield Country Club.
Taking place in North Carolina, the Wyndham Championship was first played in 1938 and has been on the PGA Tour calendar ever since, with it the final regulation event of the 2025 season.

Providing players with a last-chance opportunity to rack up FedEx Cup points before the Playoffs next week, it has provided some epic drama over its history.
Last year, Aaron Rai claimed a two stroke victory to claim his maiden PGA Tour title. The Englishman returns for 2025, alongside some big names in the form of Keegan Bradley, Matt Fitzpatrick and Rickie Fowler.
Although the likes of Major winner, Wyndham Clark, has withdrawn, the Wyndham Championship is set-up to be a big tournament in terms of the final result of the FedEx Cup Playoffs.
Wyndham Championship Course Guide: Sedgefield Country Club
Sedgefield Country Club in North Carolina was opened in 1926 and has held the Wyndham Championship since 2008, when Carl Pettersson won by two strokes.
A private members club, it is one of the few courses on the PGA Tour that has seen a 59 around its layout, with Brandt Snedeker firing the magic number in 2011, which just so happens to be the course record.

Measuring 7,131-yards, the par-70 layout is on the shorter side in terms of length on the PGA Tour calendar, which is why scores between 14-and-22-under-par have won around it.
Featuring four par 3s, 12 par 4s and two par 5s, the longest of which is 545-yards, Sedgefield Country Club, arguably, prioritizes accuracy over distance when it comes to a good score.
Last year’s winner, Rai, led the field in terms of Strokes Gained: Approach to Green, while the Englishman was T8 in terms of Driving Accuracy and T3 in Greens in Regulation. What’s more, he was 63rd in Driving Distance, showing the point that accuracy will, likely, play a big part in the outcome.
