A total of $6.4 million (view prize money breakdown) will be divided among the players this week at Sedgefield CC, where the 2020 Wyndham Championship will be held. Last year, J.T. Poston won it all there, but can he go back to back in Greensboro? Let’s take a look at Poston and two other high-value sleepers for this upcoming tournament.
Poston feels right at home at Sedgefield CC. For one, he grew up just 90 minutes from where the tournament will be held, which is in Greensboro, North Carolina. Also, Poston has good memories at Sedgefield, where he’s won his first — and still only — PGA Tour event. Last year, he won the 2019 Wyndham Championship by firing a 22-under-258 to tie Henrik Stenson’s tournament record. In the final round, Poston had an 8-under-62 to cement his victory. Poston has also made the cut in each of his last two starts, after failing to do so in three previous tournaments. Some may call him a favorite, but the Vegas odds make him a very high-value sleeper that you simply should not ignore. Hedge your wagers accordingly.
Im, who has missed the cut at the 2020 PGA Championship last week, is looking to bounce back at Sedgefield CC. Im has only played once there before but showed a solid performance in that one, as he finished solo sixth in last year’s Wyndham Championship with a 16-under-264. On the season, Im has two top 3s and six top 10s in 22 starts. He was the winner of last March’s Honda Classic.
After missing the cut three starts in a row last month, Schwartzel has made the cut in each of his last two starts, finishing tied for third at the 3M Open and posting a T58 at the PGA Championship. He has a pretty admirable track record at Sedgefield CC, where he finished third at the 2015 Wyndham Championship and 14th in 2012.
