From USDGC champion Nate Sexton announced today that he would be withdrawing from the 2020 event due to an injury sustained during practice over the weekend.
“I threw a forehand and strained a muscle down here on my side,” Sexton said. “Was hopeful that I would be able to recover in time. Tried Aleve, ice, ultrasound, electro [stimulation], rest — body’s just not doing it.”
Sexton said he attempted to see how his body felt on Tuesday but was unable to throw a full power forehand. He said will be providing on-course analysis for the USDGC livestream, however.
