Playoff scenarios for Wyndham Championship as final eight spots still up for grabs

The playoffs are almost upon us.

This week’s Wyndham Championship, which begins Thursday at Sedgefield Country Club in Greensboro, North Carolina, offers the final chance for players to play their way into the PGA Tour’s postseason. The top 70 in FedExCup points come Sunday evening will earn places into next week’s playoff opener, the FedEx St. Jude Invitational – and entered in the Wyndham field are all but two players ranked among Nos. 48-101 in points.

At No. 62 in points, Jordan Spieth is the lowest-ranked player in the field to have already clinched a playoff berth. Max Greyserman, right below Spieth, needs a two-way tie for 22nd or better to make the playoffs without any help. Victor Perez, at No. 70, needs a two-way tie for third to be safe without help.

Outside the top 70, 37 total players have a shot to advance to the playoffs with a finish other than a win, though those minimum finishes would all require some help.
