Tiger Woods struggles to 77, misses cut at PGA Championship

tiger woods

Done in by a pair of triple bogeys early in his round, Tiger Woods carded a 6-over 77 Friday and will miss the cut at the PGA Championship in Louisville, Ky.

Woods was unable to improve on the 1-over 72 he shot Thursday morning at Valhalla Golf Club. At 7-over 149, Woods was tied for 136th out of 155 in the field as the second round wrapped up.

It was the 15-time major champion’s first start since making his record 24th straight cut at the Masters last month at Augusta National.

Woods, 48, has not made the cut at the PGA Championship since 2018, when he finished second to Brooks Koepka.

Woods went 7 over in a three-hole stretch at Nos. 2-4 on Friday, with triple-bogey 7s sandwiching a bogey at the par-3 third hole. At the second, he had a shot fly from one greenside bunker to another before getting on the green in five strokes and finishing with two putts.

He was in the sand again at No. 4 when his third shot failed to get up onto the green. His first attempt to get out of the green caught the upper lip and the ball rolled back down to his feet. Again, it took him five shots to land on the green.

Woods went on to make back-to-back birdies at Nos. 7-8 before they were erased by consecutive bogeys at Nos. 11-12. He finished his week with a birdie at the par-5 18th hole.

Woods was playing at the site of his 2000 PGA Championship victory — the third leg of the “Tiger Slam,” which saw him win all four major championships consecutively from 2000-01.
