Corey Conners withdraws from 2025 Travelers Championship
Corey Conners withdraws from 2025 Travelers Championship
For the second straight week, a top-25 player in the world has withdrawn from competition.
Canada's Corey Conners was 3 under on the front nine Saturday at the 2025 U.S. Open and appeared to be making a move up the leaderboard before aggravating a wrist injury after playing a bunker shot from a plugged lie in one of Oakmont's ruthless sand traps. He shot 5-over 40 on the back and withdrew the next morning.
That wrist is obviously still bothering him, because the PGA Tour sent notice early Tuesday that Conners has withdrawn from this week's 2025 Travelers Championship.
He will be replaced by Venezuela's Jhonattan Vegas.
Conners, a 33-year-old from Ontario, has quietly been one of the most consistently good players on Tour this season. He doesn't have a win, but five top 10s — including a tie for eighth at the Masters and a solo third at the Arnold Palmer Invitational — have him No. 10 in the FedEx Cup standings.
He's also the highest-ranked Canadian player in the world at No. 24.
The 2025 Travelers Championship — the PGA Tour's final signature event of the season — begins Thursday at TPC River Highlands in Cromwell, Connecticut.
