Sam won't play it again, withdraws with neck

injury

Former Ryder Cup captain Sam Torrance has withdrawn with a neck problem from the Johnnie Walker Championship at Gleneagles. Two days after his 57th birthday he had managed only an 83 yesterday.A sponsor's invitation had enabled Torrance to take his record number of European Tour starts to 706, but by slumping to last place and then pulling out it was far from a week to remember.
It may prove to be his last on the European circuit he entered aged 18, way back in 1972.
Fog caused a 30min suspension of play over the PGA Centenary Course this morning.
