PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla., March 1 (UPI) -- Rory McIlroy, the world's top-ranked player, withdrew Friday from the PGA Tour's Honda Classic in Florida due to wisdom tooth pain, he said.
McIlroy, the tournament's defending champion played eight holes Friday, with a triple bogey, double bogey and two bogeys on his card. He'd shot even-par 70 Thursday.
