How has JT Poston performed in the 2022–23 season?

3M Open: Final Round

The 30-year-old golfer has missed 10 cuts in 26 appearances. His best finish came at the 3M Open, where he ended up in runner-up place, seven short of Lee Hodges.

Poston's last victory came at the John Deere Classic last year, when he beat Christiaan Bezuidenhout and Emiliano Grillo by three strokes.

His maiden win on the PGA Tour came at the 2019 Wyndham Championship, which he claimed by one stroke over Webb Simpson.

JT Poston is slated to tee off at the 2023 Wyndham Championship, which serves as the final event of the PGA Tour season before the commencement of the FedEx Cup Playoffs.

The 2023 Wyndham Championship will begin on Thursday, August 3, and conclude on Sunday, August 6, at the Sedgefield Country Club in Greensboro, North Carolina. 156 players will compete for $7.6 million in prize money.

Only 14 of the top 50 players will compete at the TPC Twin Cities. With a few FedEx Cup points at stake, many players struggling with form will be in action this week.

Sam Burns is the highest-ranked golfer competing at Sedgefield. Two-time major winner Justin Thomas will be trying one last time to get into the playoffs and also make his claim for the Ryder Cup later this year.

Currently 49th in the FedEx Cup standings, Poston doesn't need to be concerned about his place in the playoffs. The top 70 players in the FedEx Cup rankings will qualify for the Memphis event.
