Jason Day withdraws from the 2026 U.S. Open

Jason Day has withdrawn from the U.S. Open with a back injury midway through his first round.

Day had a rough morning, notching a bogey on the first hole of the day then racking up six straight bogeys to close out the front nine. After a par on the first hole of the back nine, Day decided that he was not able to continue.

Since Day withdrew prior to the start of Round 2, he is eligible for DraftKings Early Exit.

Stan joined DraftKings in December of 2020. It was a glorious time, except for that whole COVID thing, when we got Madden streams and boisterous bat flips from the KBO. I was brought on board to bring some West Coast flavor. I especially love hoops, and most of my content is in that arena. When I walk along the beach, strumming my guitar, the beat that I hear is not one of crashing waves. No, it is the beat of the ball bouncing off the hardwood with highs provided by the squeaks of the sneakers. Ball is life.
