Story

Tiger Woods played golf at Valhalla. He finished his first round 1-over par. This put him in a good position to play on the weekend at the PGA Championship. However, after his second round, Woods was 7-over par. This meant he would not make the cut to play on the weekend. The cut line was projected to be 1-under par when Woods finished his second round. In the past, Woods missed the cut at the PGA Championship in 2019, even though he had won the Masters two months earlier. In 2020, he finished tied for 37th place. He did not play in 2021 and withdrew after three rounds in 2022. During his recent round, Woods started well with a par on the first hole. But he struggled on the second hole, getting a triple-bogey. He faced more challenges on the third and fourth holes, resulting in more bogeys and a triple-bogey. Despite these difficulties, Woods managed to end the day with a birdie on the 18th hole. He finished the day with a score of 6-over 77. This was almost 24 years after he won the PGA title at the same course in Louisville. Previously, Woods had finished last at The Masters. In another incident unrelated to Woods, a person named Scheffler was arrested for assaulting a police officer and other charges. However, he managed to shoot a 5-under 66 in the golf tournament, placing him close to the lead. Overall, Woods struggled during his round at the PGA Championship, leading to him missing the cut. It is important for Woods to play more rounds to regain his form in important golf situations.
