PGA Tour Makes Unfortunate Jordan Spieth Announcement Amid Travelers Championship

PGA Tour Makes Unfortunate Jordan Spieth Announcement Amid Travelers Championship originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Travelers Championship teed off Thursday in Connecticut, but for former Masters champion and PGA Tour star Jordan Spieth, the first round ended in unfortunate fashion. Advertisement After playing 12 holes at 5-over par—including bogeys on two of his last three—Spieth was visibly in discomfort. Cameras and microphones caught him grimacing in pain after a tee shot, appearing to suffer from a back injury. Shortly after, the PGA Tour officially announced that Spieth had withdrawn from the tournament before completing his 13th hole. It marks another frustrating chapter for the three-time major winner, who hasn't secured a PGA Tour victory since 2022 despite being one of the most accomplished players of the past decade. This marks a career first for Spieth, who had made 297 consecutive PGA Tour starts without a withdrawal. Fans reacted to the news: Advertisement "I need my man to get healthy and get back," a fan said. Someone else added, "Dude is so injury prone. This might be it for him." Another fan posted, "Was thinking how odd that sounds. First for everything I guess. Hopefully nothing too serious, for @JordanSpieth." "He's hurting in his shoulder, you can see when you watch him swing. Watched him play. Definitely needs to decompress," one more fan commented. Headshot of Jordan Spieth at Royal Troon, July, 15, 2024Jack Gruber - USA Today Network Spieth burst onto the scene in 2015, capturing five wins that season, including two major titles at the Masters and the U.S. Open. While he has remained a respected and consistent presence on the PGA Tour—and is just one PGA Championship title away from completing the career Grand Slam—his performance has steadily declined in recent years. Advertisement Over the past two to three seasons, he's struggled more than he's thrived. Once the world's top-ranked player for a total of 25 weeks, Spieth has now fallen to No. 44 in the Official World Golf Ranking.

Giants 3B Matt Chapman goes on 10-day injured list after hurting hand vs. Braves

Matt Chapman emerges as a leader for new era of Giants baseball Matt Chapman emerges as a leader for new era of Giants baseball Matt Chapman emerges as a leader for new era of Giants baseball San Francisco Giants third baseman Matt Chapman was placed on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with inflammation in his right hand after a weekend injury against Atlanta. The move is retroactive to Monday. Chapman hurt his hand in the eighth inning Sunday when he slid back into first base on a pickoff attempt. The 32-year-old Chapman is batting .243 with 12 home runs and 30 RBIs in 65 games during his second season with the Giants, who last September received a $151 million, six-year contract through 2030. He hit a two-run homer in the bottom of the ninth inning of a 3-2 win over the Braves on Saturday. San Francisco recalled infielder Christian Koss from Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday ahead of the series opener at Colorado. The Giants were riding a five-game winning streak — each of those victories by one run, and they have played seven consecutive one-run games overall.

Leinster quartet injury doubts for URC final

British and Irish Lions squad members Tadhg Furlong, Garry Ringrose, Hugo Keenan and Josh van der Flier are injury doubts for Leinster's United Rugby Championship final against the Ringrose and Keenan are nursing calf injuries while Van der Flier's hamstring issue will be assessed before Saturday's game against the South African side at Croke Park, Dublin (17:00 BST). Tight-head prop Furlong has endured an injury-plagued season and last played in Leinster's Investec Champions Cup semi-final loss to Northampton on 3 May. The 32-year-old has managed just eight appearances for Leinster while he missed all but one of Ireland's Six Nations matches. Centre Ringrose has missed the play-offs since coming off injured against Zebre on 10 May, while Van der Flier sustained his hamstring problem in the URC quarter-final win over Scarlets. Fit-again back Jordan Larmour is available to face the Bulls after being part of the extended matchday squad in last weekend's semi-final win over Glasgow, while wing Tommy O'Brien came through that game with no issues after returning from a foot injury.

Latest Cole Ragans injury update will catch Royals fans' attention

The post Latest Cole Ragans injury update will catch Royals fans' attention appeared first on ClutchPoints. It turns out that Kansas City Royals pitcher Cole Ragans' stay on the injured list will be almost as short as possible. Advertisement The left-handed pitcher will start for the Royals on Thursday against the St. Louis Cardinals, according to Anne Rogers. That will mark just 20 days after he went on the 15-day IL. Ragans last pitched for Kansas City on May 16, allowing four runs in five innings — coincidentally, also against the Cardinals. He went on the IL the next day with a left groin strain. He made a rehab start for Double-A Northwest Arkansas on May 31, allowing five runs on seven hits in 3.2 innings. Despite the poor numbers, Ragans is ready to rejoin the team. As Royals manager Matt Quataro said before Ragans' rehab start, it's about his lefty getting his work in. 'He's also continued to throw the whole time so his arm is in a good spot,' Quatraro said, per Yahoo's Jaylon Thompson. 'Just hoping he stresses the leg enough to make sure that he is good. He really has been getting on it in the bullpen. Don't really anticipate anything. He just needs to get back out there on the mound.' Advertisement Ragans, who was an All-Star in 2024, got off to a frustrating start to 2025. In nine starts, he struck out 72 batters in only 45.2 innings and had a 6.8 percent walk rate. That contributed to a FIP of just 1.98, yet his ERA was 4.53 and the Royals went 4-5 in his starts. Adding to his frustrations, the groin ailment has bothered him throughout the season. The Royals skipped one of his starts in April as he dealt with it as well. Thankfully for the Royals, they've gotten plenty of production from rookie Noah Cameron in Ragans' stead. Cameron has made four starts, pitching to a 1.05 ERA and a 0.818 WHIP. He became only the second pitcher since 1893 to go at least 6.1 innings in his first four starts and allow one run or fewer in each, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.
