The 2025 Houston Open is underway at the Memorial Park Golf Course. While this event which takes place before The Masters has some big names competing, the tournament also saw a withdrawal. The withdrawal came from 1-time PGA Tour winner Taylor Moore.
Minutes before play could begin at the Memorial Park Golf Course, Moore withdrew due to injury. This announcement was made on the official X (formerly Twitter) handle of PGA Tour Communications.
"Taylor Moore (rib injury) is a WD from the Texas Children's Houston Open," the tweet read.
Taylor Moore's last-minute withdrawal from the 2025 Texas Open has left many fans disappointed. One user on X went to the extent of hurling a profanity while expressing shock about the golfer's withdrawal despite the lineups being locked. The user wrote:
Let us take a look at more reactions:
"This bullshit needs to stop or let us do something with our lineups. Complete fucking waste of money @DK_Assist" a user wrote.
"Pga tour severely lacks with communication" wrote a user.
"what the fck, this is too late" one user wrote.
"Fix your sh*t, PGA Tour" wrote one user.
"So he decided 5 min before lock? Players should be DQ from the next event if within 90min of the first tee time." a user wrote.
A 1-time PGA Tour winner, Taylor Moore was last seen in action at last week's Valspar Championship. However, Moore's time at the tournament was cut short as he failed to make the cut after two rounds.
