DeChambeau pulls out of LIV Golf Mexico City due to wrist injury

Bryson DeChambeau has pulled out of the LIV Golf Mexico City tournament ahead of the final round, citing a wrist injury as the reason. DeChambeau, who has won two LIV Golf events this season, was 16 strokes behind leader Jon Rahm after the third round. The American golfer stated that he experienced discomfort in his wrist during the previous round and decided to withdraw to avoid further injury. DeChambeau expressed his disappointment with how the week turned out but wished his team, the Crushers, a strong finish. He plans to take a few days to get evaluated and hopes to be ready for the LIV Golf Virginia event. Meanwhile, Mexico's Luis Carrera replaced DeChambeau in the Crushers GC line-up for the final round, with Rahm resuming two clear of Ryder Cup team-mate Tyrrell Hatton and three ahead of Tom McKibbin. The news of DeChambeau's withdrawal comes amidst uncertainty surrounding the LIV Golf League's future, following reports that the Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF) may end its financial support for the circuit. LIV Golf chief executive Scott O'Neil has stated that the league is funded through the season and will work to create a business plan to keep going. The next LIV Golf League event is scheduled to take place from May 7-10 at Trump National Golf Club in Washington DC, where DeChambeau is also set to feature.
