The Wyndham Championship was a make-or-break tournament for the chances of some big names to reach the FedEx Cup Playoffs.
That’s because it was the last regular PGA Tour event before the opening event of the Playoffs, the FedEx St. Jude Championship.
Before the tournament, the likes of Adam Scott, Gary Woodland, Nicolai Hojgaard and Joel Dahmen all had work to do to book their spots at TPC Southwind.
Here are some of the most biggest names to miss out.
Max Homa

The American has had a largely miserable 2025, with even a couple of changes of caddie, from Joe Greiner to Bill Harke and now Lance Bennett, doing little to change his fortunes.
There was a glimmer of hope that he could be putting his woes behind him with a T5 at the John Deere Classic, but that still left him with a mountain to climb to reach the FedEx Cup Playoffs.
He was still in with a chance heading into the Wyndham Championship, albeit needing to finish no worse than a two-way tie for second.
However, he got nowhere near it despite a promising first round of 66. Unfortunately for Homa, he followed that up with the five over 75 to miss the cut by four.
Adam Scott

Adam Scott will miss the first FedEx Cup Playoffs since they began in 2007 following his T55 at the Wyndham Championship.
Unfortunately for the former World No.1, who headed to the tournament 85th in the standings, he finished 12 shots adrift of what he needed, where only a two-way T3 or better would have been enough.
Tom Kim

Three-time PGA Tour winner Kim has had a year almost as frustrating as Homa’s, and his placing of 89th in the standings before the tournament left him needing solo third or better to take his spot in next week’s FedEx St. Jude Championship.
One positive leading up to the tournament for the South Korean was his 2022 Wyndham Championship victory, but there was no repeat this year.
After a three-over 73 in the first round, he only lasted 13 holes of the second round before withdrawing.
