Golfer getting injured during a round.?

Question

During the US Open today, a player (I think it was Luke Donald) injured his wrist, consequently, he withdrew. But as he was playing in a twosome. did his partner carry on alone, or did someone step into the injured players place to keep him company?

Answer 1

yeah i saw that too.

i thought he was getting arrested at first lol.

and yeah it was luke donald.

Answer 2

There often will be a "marker" --who will step in to fill a slot for the odd player. I don't know if that was the case in mid-round, though.

Answer 3

He will continue playing alone.  Like when Ian Poulter picked up and left during second round.
