World Golf Championships-Dell Technologies Match Play - Day One
AUSTIN, TEXAS - MARCH 22: Aaron Wise of the United States walks off the ninth green during day one of the World Golf Championships-Dell Technologies Match Play at Austin Country Club on March 22, 2023 in Austin, Texas. Aaron Wise’s return trip to Augusta National will have to wait another year. Wise announced on Instagram on Friday that he had withdrawn from the Masters and that he will be taking a break from the PGA Tour in order to focus on his mental health.
"Regretfully, I am withdrawing from the Masters today. Golf is just as much a mental game as it is one of physical skill, and the mental piece of it has been a struggle for me recently," Wise wrote on an Instagram story."I don't take the significance of playing at Augusta lightly, but know that I need to take some time away to focus on my mental health so I can get back to competing at a level I am proud of.
