Defending champion Bryson DeChambeau was forced to withdraw from the John Deere Classic after injuring his right shoulder while playing his opening round.
The 24-year-old American was clearly in pain when hitting an iron on a par-three, which can be viewed below.

"On two I hit the shot out of the rough on the right, and I just didn't feel great after that," DeChambeau said. "I probably overloaded the muscle, my delt. And that's something I've got to work on in the future, get it a little stronger so that stuff doesn't happen."
DeChambeau, who has five top-five finishes since February, was also forced to withdraw from the Valspar Championship in March with a back injury.
"I think I've just got to take care of my body a little bit better," he said. "I'm learning more and more each year, almost every month, pretty much."
