Louis Oosthuizen grabbed at his back on the second hole in the opening round of the Masters. There were other times on Thursday that Oosthuizen was seen reaching for the area en route to a 4-over 76.

On Friday, Oosthuizen withdrew from the tournament. Injury was cited as the reason. GolfChannel.com senior writer Rex Hoggard reported it was a neck injury, however, that led to the WD.
