Aberg Withdraws from Quail Hollow Due to Knee Injury
Austria’s Sepp Straka, playing on a sponsor exemption, won the Honda Classic on Sunday for his first PGA Tour victory, outdueling Shane Lowry with a birdie on the first hole of a playoff.
Straka, 29, closed with a 4-under 66 while Lowry, from Ireland, shot a 68.
Straka and Lowry finished 72 holes of regulation tied at 12-under 268 at PGA National in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida.
Straka’s tee shot in the playoff landed in the right rough, but he hit a perfect approach to 12 feet and made the birdie putt. Lowry’s tee shot landed in the bunker, he blasted out and hit his third to seven feet. Lowry, seeking his first PGA Tour win since the 2019 Open Championship, missed his birdie putt to the right.
Straka, who was born in Vienna but grew up in Georgia, earned $1.44 million for the victory.

Knee Issue Sidelines Aberg at Quail Hollow Championship
Jonas Aberg has pulled out of this week’s Quail Hollow Championship due to a left knee injury. The move comes as a huge blow to the Swede as he ends a run of form which has seen him rise to 21st in the world, but he revealed he was frustrated after deciding to withdraw from the $8.7m event at Quail Hollow Club.
Aberg explained: “I’ve been carrying this knee issue for the past six or seven weeks. I played with it in Houston as it was a major and I did everything to be ready to play here in Charlotte and the US Open but, in the end, it wasn’t ready.”
“It’s never nice to have to withdraw from tournaments and I’m very disappointed to not be playing. I’m going to now focus on getting it 100 per cent right to be ready for the US Open as I’m not playing the week before in Memphis, but all being well I should be there.”

Aberg’s Absence Leaves Open Door for Other Players
When Ludvig Aberg announced he would not be playing in the Wells Fargo Championship due to a knee issue, it opened the door for other players to make a name for themselves at Quail Hollow.
Aberg has been one of the most consistent players on the PGA Tour this season, and had he been healthy, he would have been one of the favorites to win this week.
With Aberg out, other players will now have a chance to step up and fill the void. Several players are in the field this week who have the potential to win, including Rory McIlroy, Patrick Cantlay and Scottie Scheffler.
