The Wyndham Championship is where Tiger Woods had his most recent top-10 finish on the PGA Tour two years ago. ... Dru Love, the son of Davis Love III, is playing on a sponsor's exemption for the fourth time since turning pro this summer. His father, a three-time winner of the event, also is playing. ... Richy Werenski, who lost in a playoff at the Barracuda Championship two weeks ago, moved up to No. 122 in the FedExCup to earn a chance at keeping his card. ...
