Just a week away from his Masters defense, Dustin Johnson has withdrawn from the Valero Texas Open.
“After much careful thought over the weekend, I have decided to withdraw from the Valero Texas Open. I now plan to spend the week at home in preparation for next week’s Masters. I sincerely apologize to the sponsors at Valero and all my friends in San Antonio, as I realize this is disappointing news. Nonetheless, I have no doubt it will be another great week for the Valero Texas Open,” Johnson said in a statement.
He will be replaced in the field by Ryan Brehm.
Since winning the Masters, Johnson has not won on the PGA Tour.
