Tiger Woods Misses Cut at Royal Troon, Marking Second Consecutive Missed Major

Tiger Woods' struggles continue, as he has missed the cut at three consecutive major championships.

Tiger Woods has endured a disappointing season, missing the cut at three consecutive major championships for just the second time in his career. The 15-time major winner shot a disappointing 77 on Friday at Royal Troon, leaving him 14-over par after two days.

Woods' struggles were evident from the start, as he notched only one birdie in his round. His chances of making the cut evaporated after a double bogey on the second hole.

This marks the second consecutive time that Woods has failed to make the cut at a major. He also missed the weekend at the U.S. Open in June.

Woods has played in all four major tournaments this season, but has only made the cut at The Masters, where he set a record for playing into the weekend at Augusta for the 24th consecutive time.

The next time fans will see Woods on a golf course will be in December at his unofficial Hero World Challenge in the Bahamas and later at the PNC Championship with his son, Charlie.

Earlier in the week, Colin Montgomerie suggested that Woods should consider retirement after his performance at the U.S. Open. However, Woods has no plans to step away from the game yet.

"I'll play as long as I can play and I feel like I still can win the event," Woods said.

The 82-time PGA Tour winner only played one major in 2023 after playing in three in 2022. Questions about his health have followed him since the February 2021 car crash that nearly cost him his right leg.

However, Woods insists that he is in good physical shape.

"I'd like to have played more, but I just wanted to be sure that I was able to play the majors championships this year," Woods said. "I got a lot of time off to get better, which has been the case all year."

"I've gotten better even though my results really haven't shown it. But physically I've gotten better, which is great, so, just need to keep progressing like that and then eventually start playing more competitively and start getting into the competitive flow again."
