Sixteen withdrawals? Missing stars? What’s going on at the Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines, this week’s PGA Tour event.
golf.comHere’s the latest available on PGA Tour withdrawals, based on recent coverage:
-
Travelers Championship 2025 saw a notable string of withdrawals from several players, including Viktor Hovland and Matti Schmid, with others like Jordan Spieth and Si Woo Kim reportedly pulling out due to injuries while rounds were in progress or imminent. This event highlighted a trend of last-minute WD shocks at PGA Tour stops.[1]
-
Earlier in 2024–2025 coverage, withdrawals at major PGA Tour events such as Players Championship and CJ Cup Bryon Nelson were reported for various reasons (injury, illness, or personal reasons), underscoring an ongoing pattern of unexpected DQs or WDs among top players.[2][5]
-
More recent chatter around 2026 events (e.g., Houston Open, Valspar Championship, and Truist Championship) highlighted multiple players withdrawing or being listed as late withdrawals, sometimes due to injuries or personal reasons, with fields reshuffled accordingly.[3][4][6]
If you’d like, I can narrow this to:
- Specific player withdrawals in the last 7 days
- Withdrawals by event location (e.g., U.S. events vs. international)
- Reasons cited (injury, illness, personal) with direct citations
