GREENSBORO, N.C. — The Wyndham Championship is will not have fans at this year's tournament, according to the organization. Organizers of the event made the announcement Monday morning.
The 81st annual Wyndham Championship is set for Aug. 13 through Aug. 16, at Sedgefield Country Club in Greensboro.
“I’m sorry we have to go this route, but I think this plan is the right call,” tournament director Mark Brazil said. “We are very excited to be able to have the tournament and showcase the Wyndham Championship and the Piedmont Triad region of North Carolina to the rest of the world, but these are truly unprecedented times. This decision is appropriate for the health and safety of the players, caddies, volunteers and fans. I am incredibly proud of our tournament staff and volunteers and appreciate the way Wyndham Rewards, the PGA TOUR and state of North Carolina worked with us, but with constantly evolving COVID-19 numbers, playing without spectators is the responsible thing to do.”
