TheWyndham Championship is a professionalgolf tournament inNorth Carolina on thePGA Tour. It is played annually inGreensboro and was originally theGreater Greensboro Open.^[1]

Founded 88 years ago in 1938 as the Greater Greensboro Open,^[1] it was usually played in April or May, until a schedule change in2003 moved it toward the end of the season. At the age of 52,Sam Snead set PGA Tour records in1965 for hiseighth win at an event and as the oldest winner of a tournament;^[2] both records still stand. He won his 8th title 27 years after his first win in 1938.Davis Love III, the 2015 champion at age 51, is the oldest to win in thesenior tour era, which began in 1980.

Charlie Sifford competed in1961, and became the firstAfrican American permitted to play in a PGA-sponsored event in the South.^[3][4] He led after the first round,^[4] and tied for fourth.^[5]

In2007, the event was renamed the Wyndham Championship whenWyndham Hotels & Resorts took over fromDaimlerChrysler as title sponsor,^[6] and dropped "Greensboro" from the title. It moved from an autumn date to mid-August and is the last PGA Tour event before theFedEx Cup Playoffs, as one last chance to qualify for the FedEx Cup.

The purse for 2015 was $5.4 million, with a winner's share of $972,000.^[7]

On August 16, 2018, during the first round,Brandt Snedeker shot a 59. It was the tenth sub-60 round in the history of the PGA Tour, and just the third with a bogey. Snedeker shot a 27 on the inward nine, burying a twenty foot putt from the fringe to make history.

The 2021 event featured a six-way playoff for first place, which was won byKevin Kisner. This tied the PGA Tour record for largest number of participants in a sudden-death playoff. This also occurred at the 1994GTE Byron Nelson Golf Classic and the 2001Nissan Open.^[8]

The event has been played in the Greensboro area for its entire history. In its first four years, it was played at bothSedgefield Country Club and Starmount Forest Country Club. DuringWorld War II, it shifted solely to Starmount Forest in 1942, and was not held in 1943 and 1944. Starting in 1945, it alternated between Starmount Forest and Sedgefield until 1952, when Starmount Forest hosted for consecutive years.

It returned to Sedgefield in 1953 before Starmount Forest hosted for three consecutive years, (through 1956). Sedgefield hosted in 1957 and Starmount Forest hosted for another three straight years from 1958–60, then back to Sedgefield from 1961 to1976. It shifted toForest Oaks Country Club from1977 to2007, then returned to Sedgefield in2008.^[9] The course at Sedgefield was designed by noted architectDonald Ross; it opened 100 years ago in 1926 and was restored in 2007.
