News summary

Matt Kuchar faced significant backlash for his decision not to complete the final hole of the Wyndham Championship, becoming the only player out of 67 to leave the tournament unfinished on Sunday due to fading light. Kuchar marked his ball on the 18th hole, opting to return the following morning for a single hole finish, which led to criticism from fans who labeled him as selfish and entitled. Although he apologized for the disruption caused to tournament officials and attendees, he did not fully take responsibility for his actions. Kuchar stated that had he been in a better position on the fairway, he likely would have completed the hole. Ultimately, after returning Monday morning, he made par on the hole, earning him a prize of $144,965 but missing the chance to qualify for the FedEx Cup playoffs for the first time in 17 years. His decision has sparked heated discussions in the golf community about player conduct and finishing protocols.
