Louis Ooshuizen and Gary Woodland will play 2021 Wyndham Championship

Louis Ooshuizen and Gary Woodland will play the 2021 Wyndham Championship. The 82nd annual Wyndham Championship is set for Aug. 11-15, 2021 at Sedgefield Country Club. Oosthuizen is No. 6 in the FedExCup point standings, No. 8 in the Official World Golf Rankings and No. 3 in the European Tour Race to Dubai point standings. A native and resident of South Africa, Oosthuizen hasn’t won this season but his last three finishes were second at the U.S. Open, tied for third at The Open Championship and tied for second at last week’s 3M Open. In addition, he finished tied for second at the PGA Championship at Kiawah Island and second at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans. The 2010 Open Championship is his only PGA TOUR victory, but he has 13 international wins. He played for the Presidents Cup international team in 2013, ’15, ’17 and ’19 and will make his first Wyndham Championship appearance next month. Woodland won the 2019 U.S. Open at Pebble Beach beating Brooks Koepka by three strokes. The University of Kansas alumnus is a four-time PGA TOUR winner. He hasn’t won yet this season but finished fifth at the Wells Fargo Championship, tied for sixth at the Valero Texas Open and tied for 11th at the 3M Open last weekend. He is 119th in the FedExCup point standings and 71st in the Official World Golf Rankings and will make his second Wyndham Championship appearance; he missed the cut here in 2012.
