Beau Hossler's first-round score at the Wyndham Championship is the best 18-hole score of his career on the PGA Tour. His performance included one eagle, nine birdies, and one bogey.

Hossler, currently tied for 88th in the FedEx Cup standings, could pull off an upset to move into the top 70 and into the post-season playoffs.

The battle to qualify for the playoffs is fierce. Players like Victor Perez, Davis Riley, and Andrew Putnam, who are 71st, 72nd, and 73rd in the FedEx Cup standings, are inside the top 50 at the Wyndham Championship, which could get them into the playoffs.

Also in the top 50 are Brendon Todd (70th) and Seamus Powers (69th). Emiliano Grillo (68th) is outside the Wyndham Championship top 50 and on the verge of missing the playoffs.
