Jason Day, a past PGA champion and multiple-time US Open runner-up, has a history of strong performances in major championships.
Jason Day, the 2015 PGA champion and a two-time runner-up at the US Open, has withdrawn from this year's Open at Shinnecock due to a bad back.
The 38-year-old Australian was wincing in pain while warming up on the driving range. Opening on the back nine, he shot 7-over 42 and after making a triple bogey on number one, he climbed into a golf cart and left the course.
Day opened the season with a tie for second at the American Express and finished 12th at the Masters, but has struggled since.
He has finished second in the three majors he has not won — most recently in the British Open in 2023. His second-place finishes at the US Open came in 2011 and 2013 and he was runner-up at Augusta in 2011.
