Bryson DeChambeau pulled out of the final round of LIV Golf Mexico City after a wrist injury forced him to withdraw. The two‑time LIV champion had been two over and 16 strokes behind leader Jon Rahm after back‑to‑back 71s and a 73 on Saturday. DeChambeau said the discomfort would worsen without rest for his upcoming events and to recover fully soon.

With DeChambeau gone, the field tightens ahead of LIV Golf Virginia, scheduled May 7‑10 at Trump National in Washington, D.C. The withdrawal leaves a gap in the leaderboard, but Rahm remains focused, saying he isn’t too worried about LIV’s future. DeChambeau’s exit also clears his schedule for the PGA Championship a week later and gives him time to rest his wrist.

DeChambeau’s decision underscores the physical toll of the LIV schedule and the importance of injury management in high‑stakes play. Fans will see how the Mexican event reshapes the leaderboard, while the rest of the tour watches for his return at Virginia. His withdrawal confirms that even top players must prioritize health over point totals to stay competitive in the long run.
