GREENSBORO, N.C. — Adam Scott got off to just the start he needed Thursday to try to salvage his season, making six birdies and turning his worst swing into a par for a 5-under 65 that gave him the early lead in the Wyndham Championship.
Justin Thomas has more stress awaiting him, both for making the FedExCup playoffs and being part of the U.S. Ryder Cup team. He didn’t take advantage of short irons and had to settle for a 70. His next task will be making sure he’s part of the weekend.
The Wyndham Championship is the final PGA Tour event before the postseason.
