Jordan Spieth Withdraws From Travelers Championship Due to Injury

- He injured his neck during warmup before the first round, marking the first withdrawal in his 297 PGA Tour starts, an unprecedented event in his career.
- Spieth visibly struggled during his first round, playing the initial 12 holes at five strokes over par while frequently wincing in pain, eventually attributing his discomfort to pain on both sides of his neck and upper back.
- He mentioned that he had never pulled out of a tournament before at any stage, so he was uncertain about how to proceed, but as the pain intensified, he told his caddie, "I'm done," and decided to stop playing.
- The injury raises uncertainty about Spieth's 2025 schedule and Ryder Cup prospects, as neck injuries in golf are tricky, and recovery remains the immediate priority.
