Cameron Young made a bit of trivial history in winning the Wyndham Championship Sunday. In picking up his first PGA Tour title, Young also became the 1,000th unique winner on the PGA Tour. Perhaps of more significance was the jockeying to finish the FedEx Cup regular season inside the top 70 in points and advance to next week's Playoffs. By virtue of a T5 finish, Chris Kirk moved from No. 73 to No. 61, while Byeong Hun An dropped from No. 69 to No. 74 and will miss the Playoffs.
