Tiger Woods Misses Cut at U.S. Open, Will Not Play This Weekend at Pinehurst No. 2
Tiger Woods, the 15-time major winner, has missed the cut at the U.S. Open after going 7-over in his two rounds, marking the first time since 2015 that he has missed consecutive major cuts. This disappointing performance comes after finishing 60th at the Masters in April and missing the cut at the PGA Championship last month.
Since winning the green jacket in 2019, Woods has struggled to find his form in major tournaments, finishing outside the top 20 in every major he’s played in, a streak of 13 straight tournaments. This is his longest such streak since the beginning of his career in 1995 and 1996 when he failed to finish inside the top 20 in the first six majors.
Despite his recent struggles, Woods has had moments of success in major tournaments, including finishes of sixth place at the Open Championship and second at the PGA Championship. However, his performance at the U.S. Open at Pinehurst No. 2 has left fans and analysts questioning his ability to compete at a high level.
This was the third time Woods had competed at Pinehurst No. 2, with previous finishes of tied for third in 1999 and second in 2005. However, his recent performance at the course has left many wondering if the golf legend will be able to recapture his past success on the major stage.
As Woods continues to navigate his comeback from a serious injury in 2021, fans will be eagerly watching to see if he can bounce back from this latest setback and return to form in future tournaments.
