Tiger makes late triple bogey, finishes on the cut line

Tiger Woods started his second round at Royal Liverpool much like he finished it. That put the three-time British winner in jeopardy of missing his second cut in 18 appearances at the championship.

Woods’ rocky start included a double bogey at the first hole that he followed with a bogey at No. 2. While he steadied the ship with 14 consecutive pars, a triple bogey at No. 17 moved the golfer to six-over par for the round, a tournament total of 3-over that briefly put him outside the cut line.

Woods needed a birdie on No. 18 at Royal Liverpool, a par 5, to give himself a chance to play the weekend. He chose a fairway wood off the tee and hit a 2 iron to the green that finished right of the putting surface. Woods pitched to 6 feet and converted the birdie putt to keep his (distant) chance to win his 15th major championship intact.

While Woods excited the golf world with his opening round of 69, Friday’s round of 6-over 77 shows that Woods is playing more like the golfer who got off to the worst start of his career in 2014 than the one who won five times on the PGA Tour in 2013.

He is currently 14 shots behind leader Rory McIlroy (12-under), who has carded consecutive rounds of 66 at Royal Liverpool.

GolfWRX is live this week at the Wells Fargo Championship as a field of the world’s best golfers descend upon Charlotte, North Carolina, hoping to tame the beast that is Quail Hollow Club in this Signature Event — only Scottie Scheffler, who is home awaiting the birth of his first child, is absent.

From the grounds at Quail Hollow, we have our usual assortment of general galleries and WITBs — including a look at left-hander Akshay Bhatia’s setup. Among the pullout albums, we have a look inside Cobra’s impressive new tour truck for you to check out. Also featured is a special look at Quail Hollow king, Rory McIlroy.

Be sure to check back throughout the week as we add more galleries.

GolfWRX is on site this week in McKinney, Texas, at the 2024 CJ Cup Byron Nelson (FKA the AT&T Byron Nelson).

Last year at TPC Craig Ranch, Jason Day ended a five-year winless streak. J-Day is in the field again, as are Jordan Spieth, Tom Kim, and Will Zalatoris.

We have our usual assortment of general galleries, WITBs, and pullout albums for your perusal. As always, we’ll continue to add links to additional albums as they make their way to us from the Lone Star State.
