Abraham Ancer was one of the betting favorites coming into the week at TPC San Antonio (+2000) but has withdrawn from the Valero Texas Open. The reason for withdrawal were not disclosed. He’s being replaced in the field by Scott Gutschewski.
This week was a home game for Ancer, as the 31-year-old lives in San Antonio. He bounced back from missed cut at the Valspar Championship nicely last week at the WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play in Austin, making it past the group stage but eventually losing in the Elite Eight.
In four appearances at the Valero, Ancer has made the weekend in all four starts with his best finish coming last season when he tied for 23rd.
Andrew Landry has also withdrawn from the tournament. He’s being replaced by Jared Wolfe.
