Justin Thomas to Play 2026 Wyndham
Two-time Major winner Justin Thomas will play the 2026 Wyndham Championship. The 87th annual Wyndham Championship is set for Aug. 5-9, 2026, at Sedgefield Country Club in Greensboro, N.C.
Thomas won the PGA Championship in 2017 and ’22. He hasn’t won yet this season but finished tied for eighth at the PLAYERS Championship and tied for fourth at the PGA Championship for his best finishes of the year. He is a 16-time PGA TOUR winner who is currently 39th in FedExCup points and 22nd in the Official World Golf Rankings. The 2017 FedExCup champion represented the United States in the Ryder Cup four times, and the Presidents Cup three times. He is making his fifth Wyndham Championship start and his first since 2023 when he finished tied for 12th after narrowly missing a birdie chip at the 72nd hole that would have put him into the FedExCup Playoffs.
The University of Alabama alumnus is no stranger to Sedgefield Country Club; he won the 2009 AJGA Wyndham Invitational presented by Odyssey and claimed an exemption into the Wyndham Championship. Thomas was just 16 years old when he made his PGA TOUR debut that year; he fired an opening 65 followed by a two-over-par 72 to become the third-youngest player to make the 36-hole cut in PGA TOUR history.
“Justin is one of the biggest stars on the PGA TOUR, and we’re always ecstatic when he plays the Wyndham Championship,” Executive Director Mark Brazil said. “With his extensive experience at Sedgefield, I would not be at all surprised to see the Sam Snead Cup in his hands Sunday evening.”
