Cleeks Golf Club captain and two-time major winner Martin Kaymer withdrew from LIV Golf Adelaide on Wednesday due to an elbow injury.
The 41-year-old German is the latest LIV Golf captain to bow out of the event, joining six-time major champion Phil Mickelson (family matter) and Englishman Lee Westwood (wrist).
“I won’t be playing in Adelaide this week due to a minor injury on my left elbow,” Kaymer said in a statement. “Sitting out is never an easy call, especially for an event as special as LIV Golf Adelaide.
“The positive is that recovery is going very well and I’m feeling strong. This is just a short pause with the focus firmly on the long season ahead, and I look forward to returning to competition in Hong Kong.”
LIV Golf reserve John Catlin will step in for Kaymer, who won the 2010 PGA Championship and 2014 U.S. Open.
