PGA Tour Commissioner Jay Monahan confirmed the tour will withhold a portion of Rory McIlroy's Player Impact Program payout after he didn't compete in the RBC Heritage.
"When we made the commitment to this schedule with the Player Impact Program, we adjusted for one opt-out," Monahan said, per ESPN's Mark Schlabach. "Then for any second opt-out, you forfeit the 25 percent, unless there was a medical issue. Based on that criteria, it's actually fairly cut-and-dry."
The rules for the PIP stipulate a golfer can opt out of one "elevated event" and still be eligible to collect his full bonus.
