GREENSBORO — The 73rd Wyndham Championship is under way, with pro golfers from all over the world teeing off at Greensboro's Sedgefield Country Club.

On Tuesday, fans got in for free before 12 p.m. to watch the first practice round for pros. The same will apply for Wednesday's pro-am celebrity tournament. Tournament play will tee off Thursday and wraps up Sunday.

"The best thing to do would be to try to follow some of the players; take them for nine holes and then all 18. And then maybe stop around the sweet spot; [holes] 15, 16, 17 - because that's probably the best spot on the PGA tour to watch golf," said tournament director Mark Brazil.

For golf fan Zack Currin and his dad, Neill, it was all about the autographs.

"We got Davis Love III, the Ryder Cup captain," said Currin.
