More PGA Tour Golfers Withdraw From the RBC Canadian Open with Little Notice originally appeared on Athlon Sports.
The RBC Canadian Open tees off on Thursday, but the list of player withdrawals continues to grow. The roster had already thinned after multiple players withdrew on Sunday, and the PGA Tour announced further exits on Monday.
Anders Albertson was added to the roster, replacing Brian Campbell who withdrew due to a shoulder injury. However, Albertson has also decided to forgo his spot in the tournament. He has been replaced by Hayden Springer.
Michael Thorbjornsen, the 23-year-old golfer with $2 million in career earnings, has likewise withdrawn from the competition. He will be replaced by 37-year-old Joseph Bramlett with $4.5 million in career earnings.
Thorbjornsen last participated in the Charles Schwab Challenge but had to withdraw because of a wrist injury. After turning professional in 2024, he has recorded four top-five finishes, including runner-up results at the John Deere Classic and the Corales Puntacana Championship.
He failed to qualify for the U.S. Open at Canoe Brook Country Club, where James Nicholas, Chris Gotterup, Roberto Diaz, and Benjamin James advanced.

Another notable golfer who failed to qualify on Monday was Max Homa. He stood out at the U.S. Open qualifier in Columbus by carrying his own bag for all 36 holes after splitting with his caddie, Bill Harke, and he declined to discuss that decision.
Homa needed a birdie on the final hole to secure his spot in the major. Despite reaching the green in two shots, he missed the putt. He will head to a playoff in Columbus, with the final spot on the line.
