The Wyndham Championship, set to tee off this Thursday at Sedgefield Country Club in Greensboro, North Carolina, marks the final opportunity for players to secure their place in the PGA Tour’s postseason. Only the top 70 in FedExCup points by Sunday evening will earn a spot in next week’s playoff opener, the FedEx St. Jude Invitational. With all but two players ranked between Nos. 48 and 101 in points competing in the Wyndham field, the race for the final playoff spots is intense.
Who’s Already In?
Jordan Spieth, currently ranked No. 62 in FedExCup points, is the lowest-ranked player in the field who has already secured a playoff berth. This means he can play the Wyndham without worrying about his postseason status.
Players on the Bubble
Max Greyserman (No. 63)
Max Greyserman, ranked just below Spieth at No. 63, needs at least a two-way tie for 22nd place or better to lock in his playoff spot without relying on others’ results.
Victor Perez (No. 70)
Victor Perez, sitting at the critical No. 70 spot, must achieve a two-way tie for third place or better to ensure his playoff berth without needing help from other players’ performances.

Outside the Top 70: Scenarios for Playoff Qualification
For the 37 players outside the top 70, advancing to the playoffs requires specific finishes, though most of these scenarios would also depend on the results of other competitors:
- Player A (Ranked 71-75): Needs at least a top-10 finish to have a realistic shot at advancing.
- Player B (Ranked 76-85): Must finish in the top 5 to stay in contention for a playoff spot.
- Player C (Ranked 86-95): Requires at least a top-3 finish, but would still need help from others faltering.
- Player D (Ranked 96-101): Must win the Wyndham Championship to guarantee a playoff spot.
Final Thoughts
With the pressure mounting, the Wyndham Championship is poised to deliver high-stakes drama as players battle for those final eight playoff spots. For those on the bubble or just outside the top 70, every stroke will be crucial in determining whether their season continues or ends in Greensboro.
