Justin Thomas' Playoff Hopes Hang in the Balance after Intense Wyndham Finish

Justin Thomas finishes the Wyndham Championship with a wild final hole, leaving him uncertain of his position in the FedExCup playoffs. Thomas hit a 15-footer for eagle at No. 15 to boost his chances but faltered with a bogey at No. 16. On the 18th hole, he hooked his tee shot into the pine straw but managed to play a vicious hook to get near the green.

The Wyndham Championship marks the end of the regular season on the PGA TOUR, with the top 70 players in the FedExCup standings qualifying for the Playoffs. The tournament takes place at Sedgefield Country Club in Greensboro, North Carolina, where golfers will face the challenge of managing themselves on the course. The par 70 course remains largely unchanged, with the primary rough trimmed and the bermuda greens measuring around 12½ feet on the Stimpmeter. Last year's scoring average was a nine-year high, and managing oneself will be crucial. Top 10 finishes will also earn exemptions into the Fortinet Championship.
