Cameron Champ withdraws from second PGA Tour event due to COVID-19

For the second time in as many years, Cameron Champ has been forced to withdraw from a PGA Tour event due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Tour announced on Tuesday that the three-time winner, most recently at the 2021 3M Open in July, was forced to withdraw from this week’s Sentry Tournament of Champions in Hawaii after testing positive for COVID-19.

“Cameron is naturally quite disappointed not to be able to return to action in Maui,” according to a statement from Champ’s representation. “Thankfully, however, he feels good and we were able to confirm this breakthrough case whilst he was still at home in Houston.”

Back in June of 2020, Champ was also forced to withdraw from the Travelers Championship after testing positive for COVID-19.
