The second round of the Memorial Tournament kicks off today from Muirfield Village Golf Club in Dublin, Ohio – right outside Columbus, where tournament founder and legend Jack Nicklaus is from.

That distinction belongs to Hideki Matsuyama, who was disqualified from the tournament for illegal markings found on one of his clubs. It was his first PGA disqualification and it happened on the 10th hole after a white paint-like substance was found on his three-wood.
This is the tournament Matsuyama won his first PGA Tour event. He is ranked No. 12 in the world and is the winner of the 2021 Masters. It was likely to help with the alignment of the ball, which is not inherently illegal, but referees deemed that it overly affected the performance of the ball.
Patrick Cantlay is the defending champion of this tournament, winning in a playoff against Collin Morikawa at -13 in 2021. Cantlay, who also won this tournament in 2019, shot par with a 72 after the first day sitting five strokes back of the lead. After the first day, five players shared the lead at five-under-par.
