POULTER HIT WITH INJURY SCARE
England's Ian Poulter suffered an injury scare on the eve of the 143rd Open Championship at Royal Liverpool.
The Ryder Cup star underwent an MRI scan on a wrist injury sustained during last week's Scottish Open in Aberdeen, at which he missed the cut.
He expects to receive the results tomorrow but has said there is no evidence of a fracture.
On Monday evening Poulter wrote on Twitter: "Just off to Leeds to have a MRI scan on the wrist. Jarred it last week on 14th and 18th. Precautionary but has to be done."
He followed that message with an update which said: "Just had the MRI. Wait until tomorrow to get the results.
"No fractures that I do know. Radiologist will let me know. Fingers crossed."
