Simpson (65) adds to weekend paycheck, sneaks into Wyndham Rewards

GREENSBORO, N.C. – Webb Simpson didn’t win the Wyndham Championship, but he still found a way to turn a trip to one of his favorite Tour stops into a seven-figure payday.

Simpson closed with a flourish at Sedgefield Country Club, birdieing four of his final five holes to finish the week at 21 under. That left him alone in second place, one shot behind winner J.T. Poston.

It’s Simpson’s second runner-up in as many weeks, and it’s the second straight year he has finished as a runner-up in Greensboro. The former U.S. Open champ earned his first career victory at this event back in 2011 and has now finished T-6 or better five times since.
