Overview

  • Wyndham Clark withdrew from The Players Championship on Friday during his second round after completing 27 holes.
  • Clark shot a 4-over 40 on the front nine, including a double bogey on the par-5 2nd hole and two additional bogeys, leaving him well below the projected cut line.
  • The PGA Tour confirmed Clark's withdrawal but did not provide an explanation for his decision to leave the tournament.
  • Clark, ranked No. 8 in the Official World Golf Rankings, has struggled to meet heightened expectations following his 2023 U.S. Open victory and other successes.
  • This marks a disappointing result for Clark, who finished as runner-up at The Players in 2024 and entered this year's event with 60-to-1 odds to win.
