Weekend Warriors – Wells Fargo Championship
The weekend
Notable missed cuts (+1 was the line): Danny Lee, Danny Willett, Scott Stallings, Harold Varner III, Phil Mickelson, Russell Henley, Cameron Champ, Keegan Bradley, Zach Johnson, and Adam Svensson. Sam Burns and J.B. Holmes WD.
Weather consideration: There’s not much to consider with regards to the wind, as both Saturday and Sunday will see wind pop up in the 7-16mph range which is close to what conditions were in the first two rounds; the temperature will be great, in the high 80s which should help add some distance to shots.
Unfortunately though, there’s the matter of thunderstorms: 20% chance in the afternoon on Saturday, and a 70% chance on Sunday. That could push play into a Monday finish depending on when it’s supposed to hit on Sunday, or more likely split tees Sunday morning. That won’t affect the course, but prepare for lengthy delays.
MDF consideration: It was close, but not this week.
