Aaron Rai closed with a 6-under 64, making a 6½-foot birdie putt on the par-4 18th to post an 18-under 262 in the regular-season finale at Sedgefield Country Club. It was enough for him to win the Wyndham Championship – his first ever PGA Tour title.
Rai was four strokes back after Greyserman holed out from 91 yards for eagle on the par-4 13th, then had an unexpected share of the lead a hole later when Greyserman drove out of bounds and made a quadruple-bogey 8 on 14.
J.J. Spaun (64) and Ryo Hisatsune (67) tied for third at 15 under. Amateur Luke Clanton bogeyed the final two holes for a 69 to tie for fifth with Austin Eckroat (67) at 14 under.
⛳ Why is it Heading to a Monday Finish? The Wyndham Championship has crowned Rai the winner – but the final round at Sedgefield Country Club is not over yet.
In a tournament marked by a tropical storm, a quadruple bogey collapse and a Sunday that saw three different rounds being played, the golf gods offered one final twist.
Playing in the final group with the sun setting, Matt Kuchar opted not to finish the 18th hole and to return Monday morning to conclude his final round.
Play was suspended after all three players in Kuchar’s group – including Chad Ramey and Max Greyserman – hit their tee shots. All three players were given the option to finish on Monday.
While Ramey and Greyserman completed their rounds, Kuchar said he would return on Monday. He will resume his final round at 8 am ET.
Kuchar entered the Wyndham Championship at No 113 in the FedEx Cup Playoffs and Eligibility Points List. Needing a win to extend his 17-year Playoffs streak and currently at T-12 at Wyndham, seven strokes back of winner Aaron Rai, his streak will come to an end.
