MEXICO CITY — Bryson DeChambeau withdrew from the final round of LIV Golf Mexico City, citing an injury to his wrist that he did not want to further aggravate.
DeChambeau, who was trying to become the first player to win three straight times on LIV Golf, started poorly at Chapultepec Golf Club and was 16 shots behind Jon Rahm when he withdrew, AP reported.
“I experienced some discomfort in my wrist and have decided to withdraw from the the final round of LIV Golf Mexico City to prevent further injury,” DeChambeau said on a social media post. “Not how I wanted this week to go.”
DeChambeau said he would be evaluated and hoped to be at LIV Golf Virginia on May 7-10, a week before the PGA Championship.
He missed the cut in the Masters last week when he took two shots to get out of a bunker and made triple bogey on his last hole.
Rahm took a two-shot lead into the final round in Mexico City.
