Cameron Champ has been forced to withdraw from a PGA Tour event for the second time in as many years due to the COVID-19 outbreak.
The three-time winner, who most recently won the 2021 3M Open in July, was forced to withdraw from this week’s Sentry Tournament of Champions in Hawaii after testing positive for COVID-19, the Tour reported on Tuesday.
According to a statement from Champ’s agency, “Cameron is naturally incredibly unhappy not to be able to return to action in Maui.” “Fortunately, he is doing well, and we were able to validate this groundbreaking case while he was still at home in Houston.”
Champ was forced to withdraw from the Travelers Championship in June of 2020 after testing positive for COVID-19.
