12 withdraw from AT&T Byron Nelson, including Day and Poulter
The number of withdraws from the AT&T Byron Nelson has already reached 12 golfers as Thursday’s first round approaches.
Jason Day, who won the event in 2010 — his first PGA Tour win — withdrew on Wednesday citing “severe dizziness” during Wednesday’s Pro-Am at TPC Four Seasons in Irving, Texas.
Ian Poulter, who finished T5 at last week’s Crowne Plaza Invitational, also withdrew from this week’s event after experiencing a “slight strain” in the gym on Monday, as he announced via Twitter.
I will not be competing this week in Texas, I picked up a slight strain in the Gym on Monday, so taking precautions and not chancing it.
— Ian Poulter (@IanJamesPoulter) May 27, 2015
Other notable withdrawals from the Byron Nelson include Kevin Kisner, who’s had two second-place finishes in his past five events, George McNeill, Louis Oosthuizen, Jason Kokrak, Scott Gardiner, Chris Stroud, Alex Cejka, Neal Lancaster, Fredrick Jacobson and Will Zalatoris, according to ESPN.
Notable additions to the field include Tommy Gainey, Trevor Immelman and Ben Curtis.
While the field changes may or may not affect the outcome of the event, they will most certainly impact all those who have entered our DraftKings Weekly Fantasy Golf Contest. Don’t forget to adjust your rosters before tomorrow.

What GolfWRXers are saying about Kevin Kisner’s new Callaway X Forged CB irons
In our forums, our members have been discussing Kevin Kisner’s new Callaway X Forged CB irons which he has in the bag at this week’s CJ Cup. WRXers have been commenting on the switch and the clubs themselves in our forums.
For lots more photos, check out the full thread here.
Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.
- btyh: “Holy offset.”
- Glf_LU: “These are interesting. Not going to make a rush to judgement until I see them in person. It does look like a little more offset than I would expect to see in this model.”
- bcflyguy1: “Kisner is not one to make a lot of equipment changes (see the GBB driver he’s still using), so if these do have staying power in his bag that will be interesting to see. I have to wonder if there’s something different about his set, because like others have mentioned there appears to be more offset on his than I recall seeing in the samples I’ve had in hand.”

WATCH: PGA Tour players play hole blindfolded and it’s hilarious/amazing
As part of a Srixon campaign, four PGA Tour players recently participated in a three-hole challenge, with each hole being a different game; hole No. 1 was blindfolded, hole No. 2 was costumes and distractions, and hole No. 3 was alternate shot with a baseball bat. The teams were Smylie Kaufman and Sam Ryder against Shane Lowry and Grayson Murray.
Watch the full video below, since it is quite entertaining (albeit not the type of golf that Old Tom Morris surely had in mind), but in particular, make sure to check out the first hole where Lowry and Ryder play a full hole completely blind folded. It’s amazing to watch how badly Ryder struggles, and how Lowry nearly makes par.
What happens when 4 #PGATOUR pros take a day off?
Luckily, the cameras were rolling.

Cleveland-Srixon’s marketing department has been hard at work crafting these viral-esque ad campaigns; if you remember, former long-drive champion Jamie Sadlowski recently dressed as 80-year-old Grandpa Jamie to fool range-goers. That video has since gathered over 1.2 million views on YouTube.

The dreadful forecast may make some feel it’d be a wasted trip, and they’d rather stay at home with family

Isn’t this an extraordinary number of withdrawals? Is it all coincidence, or is there anything going on behind the scenes which might explain it?
