The 2024 Wyndham Championship is set to tee off on Thursday, August 8 at the Sedgefield Country Club in Greensboro, N.C. The final regular event on the PGA Tour 2024 schedule saw four golfers enter the field via Monday qualifiers.

The Wyndham Championship, held immediately after the Olympics men’s golf outing, sees a 156-player field competing for the $7,900,000 prize purse and valuable FedEx Cup points. George Kneiser, Cooper Musselman, Martin Trainer and Henrik Norlander made it to the final field for the 37th event of the PGA Tour season via Monday’s qualifiers.

The golfers entered the event, which fields 21 of the top 50 Official World Golf Ranking players among the top contenders, dramatically as the qualifiers ended with an 8-for-2 playoff at Bermuda Run Country Club.

Despite making 101 cuts on the PGA Tour, Norlander is yet to win an event. He has made five prior appearances at the Wyndham with the best result coming in 2013, when he finished T16.
