There’s been a late withdrawal from the Butterfield Bermuda Championship with Gordon Sargent pulling out just before teeing off in the first round.
Just over an hour before Sargent was due to tee off in the 8:39am ET group at Port Royal Golf Course, the PGA Tour revealed news of his withdrawal.
The big-hitting Alabama native qualified for the pro ranks from PGA Tour University in October 2023, but returned to college to complete his senior year at Vanderbilt.

Sargent cited a hand injury for pulling out during the second round at Black Desert Resort, but no reason was given for his late withdrawal in Bermuda.
