Garrick Higgo of South Africa withdrew from THE PLAYERS Championship with a wrist injury Friday.

After starting his second round on the back nine, Higgo had made three straight pars and a double-bogey at the par-3 13th hole when he withdrew. He shot 1-over 73 in the first round and was 3-over for the tournament, outside the projected cut.

Higgo, 24, is 114th in the FedExCup, with five made cuts in seven starts this season. He was coming off a T32 at the Puerto Rico Open last week.

He won the 2021 Palmetto Championship at Congaree, his lone PGA TOUR title.

Higgo had just one top-10 finish in 33 starts last season, a third at the Sanderson Farms Championship, and is presently No. 171 in the Official World Golf Ranking.
