Jason Day, a member at Muirfield Village Golf Club, out of 2025 Memorial with sore wrist
Jason Day, a member at Muirfield Village Golf Club, out of 2025 Memorial with sore wrist DUBLIN, Ohio — Westerville, Ohio, resident and Muirfield Village Golf Club member Jason Day is sitting out the 2025 Memorial Tournament because of soreness in his left wrist. "Unfortunately, I won't be able to compete in the Memorial," Day messaged tournament officials last week. "I've had some discomfort in my left wrist and after consulting with my doctor he recommended I take the week off to rest and recover. "I always look forward to playing in Ohio at Jack's event each year," Day wrote. "As a member at Muirfield we are quite honored to recognize Barbara Nicklaus as this year's honoree. I look forward to returning in 2026." Day, 37, last missed the Memorial in 2021, when a back injury forced him to withdraw. His only other absence came in 2011. His best finish in 15 appearances is a tie for fourth in 2020. Day has also been struggling with a back issue that caused him to withdraw from the May 8-11 Truist Championship. Day was dealing with a herniated disc near his neck, but returned to play in the PGA Championship a week later, where he missed the cut. Day's season has included three top-10 finishes, including a tie for eighth at the Masters. Last year at the Memorial, the former world No. 1 stayed in his RV in his Westerville driveway to simulate a typical tournament week on the road. The driveway to fairway system began in 2020, when Day tied for fourth at the Memorial. Needless to say, with his injury, he'll be sleeping in his own bed this week.

It appears Rory McIlroy is skipping the next PGA Tour signature event
The idea behind the PGA Tour's signature events was that with no cut, smaller fields, and huge purses, all of the circuit's top players would attend. But Scottie Scheffler skipped the signature Truist Championship prior to the PGA Championship, and the move paid massive dividends as he won at Quail Hollow for his third major title. Just a few weeks later, another top player in the world appears to be skipping a signature event, most likely because he finds another tournament more favorable. Rory McIlroy is not listed in the field for the signature Memorial Tournament, which starts next week in Columbus, Ohio. Muirfield Village Golf Club has hosted the Memorial Tournament presented by Workday annually since the inaugural event in 1976. The field will be finalized following the conclusion of the Charles Schwab Challenge. Field for the Memorial Tournament presented by Workday: — PGA TOUR Communications (@PGATOURComms) May 23, 2025 McIlroy, currently the No. 2 player in the Official World Golf Ranking, previously committed to the RBC Canadian Open outside Toronto. McIlroy has enjoyed an impressive run north of the border, posting a pair of victories in four starts and he has never finished outside of the top 10. Last year, by virtue of a 64 in the final round, the Northern Irishman finished tied for fourth. This year, the tournament will make its debut at the TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley.
