Jason Day Withdraws from Truist Championship Due to Neck Injury

Jason Day, a former Truist Championship and PGA Championship winner, has withdrawn from the 2025 Truist Championship just days before the event due to a herniated disc in his neck. His absence, following Scottie Scheffler's announcement to skip the tournament, removes another top contender from the field ahead of next week's PGA Championship. Patrick Rodgers initially replaced Day but also withdrew and was succeeded by Chez Reavie. Day's ongoing injury issues have led to multiple withdrawals this season, though he has managed some strong finishes, including a top-8 at the Masters. The Truist Championship remains a high-profile event with a $20 million purse and features nine of the top ten players in the world, with Rory McIlroy entering as the favorite. Day's injury puts his participation in the upcoming PGA Championship in doubt, raising concerns about his form and recovery for the rest of the season.
