Patrick Cantlay is fifth player to withdraw from 2026 Wyndham Championship

Patrick Cantlay became the fifth player to withdraw from this week’s Wyndham Championship since the field was announced at the traditional PGA Tour Friday deadline.

Cantlay tied for eighth Sunday at the Rocket Classic, his fourth top 10 and ninth top 25 of the 2026 season. He’s currently 41st in the FedEx Cup Playoffs standings, which puts him through to not only the first postseason event next week, the FedEx St. Jude Championship, but also Week 2’s BMW Championship.

If PGA Tour players WD before a tournament starts, they’re not required to provide a reason.

Other Wyndham withdrawals since the field was announced:

  • Saturday, Aug. 1: Kristoffer Reitan (WD), Kristoffer Ventura (IN); Brendon Todd (WD), Matt Kuchar (IN)
  • Sunday, Aug. 2: Dan Brown (WD), Lanto Griffin (IN), Michael Thorbjornsen (WD), Justin Lower (IN)
  • Monday, Aug. 3: Patrick Cantlay (WD), Ben Silverman (IN)

Other Wyndham field changes since last Friday:

  • Sunday, Aug. 2: Zac Blair (IN, sponsor exemption)
  • Monday, Aug. 3: Blakes Brown (IN on own number), Ben Kohles (IN on own number), Camilo Villegas (IN, sponsor exemption), Hayden Springer (IN, sponsor exemption)

Sedgefield Country Club in Greensboro, North Carolina, has hosted the Wyndham Championship as the final regular-season event since 2008.
