Patton Kizzire withdrew from play during the first round of the Valspar Championship on Thursday due to a back injury.
Starting on the back nine at Innisbrook Resort (Copperhead Course), Kizzire recorded three bogeys over his first eight holes before opting to call it a day at the tournament in Palm Harbor, Fla.
Kizzire, 39, finished in 10th place at this tournament in 2023.
A three-time winner on the PGA Tour, Kizzire’s last victory came at the Procore Championship on Sept. 15, 2024.
Also on Thursday, Paul Waring opted to withdraw prior to the start of the tournament due to a shoulder injury.
