Retief Goosen withdrew during his opening round of THE PLAYERS with a back injury.
The South African walked off after hitting his tee ball left of the fairway at the par-4 first hole, his 10th of the round. He went out in even-par 36 trading two birdies with two bogeys. Goosen entered the week as a question mark after withdrawing early from last week's stop in Charlotte due to his back.
