Justin Rose was the first to withdraw as the star golfer battles a back injury. Rose completed the first two rounds before withdrawing. The golfer revealed that he had become "progressively ill" during the week.

For those locked in to traditional television broadcasts, ESPN will continue its “first tee to last putt coverage” of the first two rounds on Thursday and Friday, along with weekend morning viewing for the third and fourth rounds. Then, CBS will complete Saturday and Sunday with the broadcasting duo of Jim Nantz and Trevor Immelman.
