McGinley out of final Major of season as doctors order him to rest

European Ryder Cup captain Paul McGinley has withdrawn from the US PGA Championship due to a shoulder injury.

The 47-year-old missed the Alstom Open de France at the beginning of July as a bout of bursitis affected the mobility in his left shoulder and the condition has ruled him out of next week’s Major at Valhalla Golf Club in Kentucky.

The Dubliner undertook a scan during the Scottish Open and a period of rest has now been prescribed.
