Brooks Koepka WITHDRAWS from Tour Championship with WRIST INJURY
Brooks Koepka is now a doubt for the Ryder Cup and his charity match with Dave Portnoy has been postponed.
Brooks Koepka has been forced to withdraw from the Tour Championship on the PGA Tour after injuring his wrist when striking a ball from a tree root on the 10th hole during round three.
The injury now casts doubt over Koepka's appearance at the Ryder Cup in three weeks time.

Koepka was 3-over par on the day and 1-under par for the tournament when he withdrew at the 12th hole.
Although he has withdrawn from the Tour Championship, Koepka still receives $395,000 for finishing 30th in the 30-man FedEx Cup finale.
"Same wrist I had issues with back in '17, '18, so just making sure it's all good," said Koepka.
