Dustin Johnson withdrew from the PIF Saudi International on Thursday due to a back injury, the Asian Tour announced.
Though the specifics of his injury aren’t known, Johnson reportedly tweaked his back during a practice round at the Royal Greens Golf and Country Club in Saudi Arabia earlier this week. He didn’t play in the pro-am on Wednesday, either.
Johnson won 24 times on the PGA Tour, including at the Masters and the U.S. Open. He was one of the biggest names to leave the Tour for LIV Golf last year, a move that turned out to be incredibly solid financially. Johnson won more than $35 million in the controversial league’s inaugural season, and won both the individual title and the team title.
While many players who defected from the PGA Tour did so with plenty of controversy and criticism, Jordan Spieth still had high praise for Johnson at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am on Wednesday.
