It took six playoff participants and two extra holes to reach an outcome, and in the end it was Kevin Kisner winning the Wyndham Championship, the final regular-season event on the PGA Tour’s 50-event “super season.”
On the second playoff hole, Kisner, the last to hit his approach shot among the six, stuffed a 9-iron to 4 feet on No. 18 at Sedgefield Country Club. He watched as the other five settled for par before stepping up and drilling his birdie putt for the win.
It was Kisner’s third PGA Tour win and first since the 2019 WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play. His last stroke-play victory was at Colonial in 2017. It was also his first playoff victory on Tour after five previous defeats.
Kisner outlasted Si Woo Kim, Adam Scott, Roger Sloan, Kevin Na and Branden Grace in the 12th playoff this season.

The win moves Kisner into the top 30 in the FedEx Cup Playoffs standings.
Scott had a chance to win it on the first playoff hole but missed a 4-footer for birdie. All six golfers parred the first extra hole.
Sunday’s final round was moved up a few hours as PGA Tour officials were looking to avoid potential weather delays.
