American Michael Brennan captures Wyndham crown for second PGA win
24-year-old, whose other PGA title came last October at the Bank of Utah Championship on a sponsor's exemption, took home $1.53 million
Michael Brennan has moved into a co-lead position alongside Beau Hossler in the Wyndham Championship after posting a stunning five birdies in the final eight holes of Saturday's third round. The duo sits at 16-under-par 194, one shot ahead of the field entering Sunday's decisive round. Hossler, who finished second in the Myrtle Beach Classic last May, described the experience as "incredibly chaotic" due to two weather-related pauses that disrupted his momentum.
Brennan, however, remained focused and expressed satisfaction with his strategic position in the final group heading into the championship. South Korea's Tom Kim is in third place at 15-under-par, followed by Alex Smalley and Alex Noren at 14-under-par. The final tournament of the PGA Tour's regular season, a strong showing could propel the players into the FedEx Cup playoffs, which begin next week in Memphis.
