Why did Harris English WD from the 2024 Wyndham Championship?

Harris English withdrew from the 2024 Wyndham Championship due to a back injury. The American golfer was initially slated to compete in the PGA Tour event this week but was forced to withdraw ahead of the first round.

The tournament was scheduled to start on Thursday, August 8, but was postponed to Friday, August 9, due to inclement weather. However, English withdrew from the competition before he could tee off, and Kevin Tway entered the field as his replacement.

PGA Tour Communications shared the news on its X (formerly Twitter) account, writing:

"Harris English WD from the Wyndham Championship with a back injury; Kevin Tway in."

Harris English has played in 19 events this season and has made the cut in 16 of them, with two top-10 finishes. He began his 2024 PGA Tour campaign at The Sentry, where he tied for 14th place.

The 35-year-old recorded some impressive finishes this season, including a solo seventh-place finish at The Genesis Invitational and a tie for 10th place at The Sony Open in Hawaii.
