Enjoying the comforts of a luxury box at the Wyndham Championship is no longer reserved for corporate sponsors and their lucky guests.
Now, Wyndham and the annual PGA Tour event at Sedgefield Country Club are making it easy by offering Wyndham Rewards Earner Card holders with a grounds pass a free upgrade to a 17th green luxury box complete with the same open bar and food available to other hospitality boxes.
The Wyndham Rewards Earned Card Lounge is perhaps the most noticeable addition to the hospitality at the tournament, scheduled for Aug. 2-6.
Tournament Chairman Bobby Powell called the Earner Card Lounge the tournament’s “new, shiny penny,” and expected it be a popular addition to tournament week.
“We’ll try that out this year and see how it goes,” Powell said.
Don’t have a Wyndham Rewards card? You can sign up for on at the tournament and get the upgrade. Non-card holders can gain access to the box for a daily fee of $375.
As of June 8, Wyndham Championship Executive Chairman Mark Brazil said only a few hospitality spots remain available – boxes on the 17th and 18th holes with a combined seating for about 60 guests. Brazil said boxes on Nos. 15 and 16 are sold out.
Grounds passes went on sale early this month. The weekly pass, good for Wednesday through Sunday, are $250. Daily passes to the four tournament rounds are $60 on Thursday, $65 on Friday, $70 on Saturday and $65 on Sunday. The passes can be purchased online at https://www.wyndhamchampionship.com/spectators/tickets/.
A grounds pass includes admission and access to all public areas & attractions, including Margaritaville,Truist Fan Pavilion, Sunbrella® Wine Deck, Tito’s Stillhouse, Clyde May’s Barrel House and Sunbrella Comfort Zone.
Proceeds from the Wyndham Championship benefit local charities, including Birdies Fore Backpacks, which provides food and other necessities to Triad kids.
Though Brazil and Powell don’t expect LIV Tour players to be eligible to return to the Wyndham Championship until 2024, the Greensboro field should be one of its best in years, thanks in part to the PGA Tour’s 20-event requirement for “top players” implemented this year.
The field is expected to include defending champion Tom Kim, who shot 61 in the final round to win last year at Sedgefield.
Players have until the Friday prior to the Wyndham to commit to the Greensboro tournament.
