Aaron Rai withdrew with a neck injury prior to the start of Thursday's first round at the Houston Open.

Taylor Moore, 32, replaced the Englishman in the field at Memorial Park Golf Course.

Rai, 31, missed the cuts at The Players and the Valspar Championship this month after finishing T23 on March 1 at the Cognizant Classic, his best showing of the season.

Rai's lone PGA Tour victory to date was at the 2024 Wyndham Championship. He is currently ranked No. 39 in the world.
