There’s a reason why Matt Wallace says the most important member of his team at Sedgefield Country Club this week is his sports psychologist.
Wallace entered the Wyndham Championship at No. 80 in FedExCup points, 10 spots outside the number for next week’s playoff opener, the FedEx St. Jude Championship. To punch his postseason ticket, Wallace requires a minimum finish of solo 14th, though it’s more likely he needs a finish well inside the top 10 to be safe.
So far, so good – at least from a score standpoint – for Wallace, who fired an opening 3-under 67 and sat just two shots off the lead following the morning wave.
