He represented the United States in the Ryder Cup matches five times, the Presidents Cup three times, the Olympics in 2016 and as an amateur in the Walker Cup twice.

“We love having Rickie in the Wyndham Championship field,” Executive Director Mark Brazil said. “Wherever he plays, he’s a major fan favorite. He’s been one of the most-popular players in the world for the last decade or more, and he’s one of the nicest and most-respected guys in professional golf.”
