Patrick Reed withdraws from the BMW PGA Championship midway through the second round after an apparent hand injury. The withdrawal ends his tournament run at Wentworth.
Reports describe the injury as affecting his left hand and occurring during a difficult second round. The Winnipeg Free Press notes Reed retires with the hand issue during the middle portion of play, while NDTV characterizes it as an apparent injury that leads to his withdrawal. No sources provide detailed medical findings or an official diagnosis beyond the description of the hand problem.
Both outlets frame the development as occurring during the event rather than after the round, with Reed unable to continue. The difference is primarily in wording: one outlet uses “retires” while another reports “withdraws,” but both indicate the same outcome and timing. The tournament continues without his participation after the decision.
