Clark withdraws from Masters

Tim Clark of South Africa will miss the Masters Tournament next week as he recovers from an elbow injury.

Thomas Parker, his agent at Professional Advisory Group, said in a text message Wednesday that Clark’s elbow is feeling better but that he has not had enough time to properly prepare for the first major of the year.

The 39-year-old Clark was runner-up to Phil Mickelson at the 2006 Masters.

Clark was eligible by winning the Canadian Open last year. He has not played since the Sony Open in Honolulu the second week of the year.

With Clark not playing, the Masters is assured of having fewer than 100 players at Augusta National for the 49th consecutive year. The number of eligible players is now 98, and the winner of this week’s Houston Open could qualify.
