J.T. Poston withdraws from RBC Canadian Open after Memorial win

Summary

J.T. Poston has withdrawn from the RBC Canadian Open field, one day after winning the Memorial Tournament in Dublin, Ohio. The decision comes after Poston competed in 31 holes on Sunday and two playoff holes to secure his first PGA Tour victory, earning a career-high $4 million. He will be replaced in the Open by Ben Martin, who has struggled in recent tournaments. Poston’s win also qualifies him for the U.S. Open at Shinnecock Hills next week, avoiding the Final Qualifying rounds. His recent victory has improved his rankings significantly in both the FedEx Cup and the Official World Golf Ranking.
