Cam Smith withdrew from BMW Championship on Monday because of what his agent described as lingering “hip discomfort.”
It’s been an eventful few weeks for Smith, who won The Open and has been the subject of persistent speculation, including a sourced report last week from the Telegraph, that he’ll depart for LIV Golf following the conclusion of the FedExCup playoffs. Smith said that he had no comment on that particular report and was solely focused on the playoffs.
Smith was in the mix through 54 holes at the FedEx St. Jude Championship, two shots behind heading into the final round with a chance to become world No.
