England's Paul Waring announced Monday he will not participate in The Open Championship this week because of a shoulder injury.

Davis Riley will replace Waring in the final major of the year that will start Thursday at Royal Portrush Golf Club in Northern Ireland.

Waring, 40, is a two-time winner on the European Tour who finished tied for 19th at The Open in 2008. He has played in a major seven times, with five of them at The Open.

Riley, a native of Mississippi, has two victories on the PGA Tour, the most recent at the Charles Schwab Challenge in May of last year. The 28-year-old will participate in all four major tournaments during the same calendar year for the first time.

Riley finished tied for second at the PGA Championship in May. He missed the cut at The Open in 2023.

Waring announced his withdrawal one day after four-time major winner Ernie Els did the same when Si Woo Kim of South Korea was added to the field.
