Lanto Griffin wins Houston Open and Takes Wyndham Rewards Top 10 Lead

Lanto Griffin won the Houston Open, jumped nine spots in the FedExCup point standings and vaulted to the the Wyndham Rewards Top 10 lead.  It was his first PGA TOUR victory.  Mark Hubbard finished tied for second and jumped 18 spots into seventh place.

New last season, the $10 million Wyndham Rewards Top 10 not only adds drama to the Wyndham Championship as the final event before the FedExCup Playoffs but also puts an even greater premium on excelling over the course of the FedExCup Regular Season. 

The top-10 Regular Season finishers in FedExCup points following the Wyndham Championship – also sponsored by Wyndham Rewards – will reap the benefits of the Wyndham Rewards Top 10. The regular season points leader will earn $2 million, followed by $1.5 million for the runner-up with the 10th-place finisher earning $500,000.
