Sahith Theegala (neck) withdraws from PGA Championship

Sahith Theegala withdrew on the eve of the PGA Championship on Wednesday due to a neck injury.
Alex Smalley will replace Sheegala when the year's second major begins Thursday at Quail Hollow in Charlotte, N.C.
Theegala, 27, had to pull out of last week's Truist Championship after three rounds due to the same ailment.
Ranked No. 31 in the world, he has missed just one cut but also has only one top-20 finish in 12 individual events this year. Theegala finished T17 at The Genesis Invitational in February and T29 at The Masters last month.
His lone victory to date on the PGA Tour came at the Fortinet Championship in September 2023.
Smalley, 28, is competing in his third PGA Championship. He tied for 23rd in 2023 and missed the cut in 2024.
Ranked No. 120 in the world, Smalley has not won on the PGA Tour but has two top-10 finishes in 14 events this year.
