Zach Johnson birdied his opening hole Thursday at the 2022 RBC Heritage and was even after 12 holes.
But after the 15th hole, Johnson was done for the week, withdrawing from the tournament due to illness, according to the PGA Tour. He was 4 over at the time.
Johnson, who was named the captain for the U.S. team for the 2023 Ryder Cup seven weeks ago, came into Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, off a missed cut at the Masters Tournament. Johnson shot 74-75 at Augusta National Golf Club.
Johnson was playing with C.T. Pan and Davis Love III and was scheduled to do so again at 8:05 a.m. ET on Friday.
