ORLANDO — Rory Sabbatini withdrew from the Arnold Palmer Invitational on Saturday. Eight over for the day through 13 holes at Arnold Palmer’s Bay Hill Lodge and Club, he cited a knee injury as the reason he could no longer play.
But apparently, it wasn’t bothering too badly because he stuck around to rake a bunker. Sabbatini, who was playing with India’s Anirban Lahiri, didn’t head in after withdrawing but continued walking with Lahiri and even raked a bunker for him.
“It’s really unusual, don’t you think?” NBC’s Jimmy Roberts asked fellow commentator Peter Jacobsen.
