Mandatory Credit: Kyle Terada-Imagn Images Will Zalatoris announced Monday he will miss the rest of the PGA Tour season after surgery to repair two herniated discs in his back.
"This spring, I started feeling some discomfort and instability in my back that progressively got worse," he posted on social media. "Following the PGA Championship, an MRI showed that I had re-herniated two discs. After discussing the options with my medical team, I underwent surgery this past Friday with Dr. Michael Duffy at the Texas Back Institute.
"I'm happy to say that I woke up feeling good and excited about my long-term back health."
Zalatoris, 28, previously underwent disc surgery in April 2023.
He missed the cut earlier this month at the PGA Championship at Quail Hollow. His best finish this season was a T12 at The American Express in January.
Zalatoris has one career PGA Tour victory (2022 FedEx St. Jude Championship) under his belt, although he has runner-up finishes at the 2021 Masters, 2022 PGA Championship and 2022 U.S. Open.
