Kevin Na withdraws from Masters ‘due to illness’

LIV Golf’s Kevin Na withdrew from the Masters Tournament on Thursday after posting a 4-over 40 on the first nine of Augusta National.

The Iron Heads GC captain had a less than ideal start to his day before the withdrawal, recording an opening double bogey before notching four bogeys to just two birdies the rest of the way. Na withdrew “due to illness,” according to the tournament.

Na was playing with Mike Weir in the only twosome of the opening two rounds. Aaron Wise withdrew last week to focus on his mental health, with led to the atypical pairing.
