Why did Si Woo Kim withdraw from Round 2 of the 2025 Travelers Championship?

Si Woo Kim has withdrawn from the second round of the 2025 Travelers Championship due to a back injury. The South Korean golfer, making his 20th start of the season, exited the event after playing 12 holes on Friday.

Kim had a rough start to his second round at TPC River Highlands. He opened with a double bogey on the first hole, followed by bogeys on the second, third, and eighth holes. He made the turn at 5-over 40. His back nine didn’t improve either, as he carded another double bogey on the par-4 12th before withdrawing from the tournament.

In the first round on Thursday, Si Woo Kim shot a 1-over 71, which included four bogeys and three birdies. His withdrawal came just a day after Jordan Spieth also pulled out mid-round due to a neck injury during the first round.
