Even without Woods, plenty at stake at Wyndham Championship (The Associated Press)

GREENSBORO, N.C. (AP) -- There's still plenty at stake at the Wyndham Championship this year - even if some of the big names from last year aren't playing.

Tiger Woods didn't return, sidelined by a back injury. And Davis Love III - a local favorite and three-time winner who had hip surgery last month - is only watching.

When play begins Thursday at Sedgefield Country Club, the field once again will be littered with players trying to force their way off the PGA Tour's bubble in the final week of golf's regular season and earn spots in the first round of the playoffs.
