Sepp Straka: Sepp Straka missed cuts in three of the eight events he participated in and played two rounds of 72 each.
Zach Johnson: The US Ryder Cup captain didn’t play quite well this week and secured 70 and 76 in the first two rounds. As a result, he missed the second cut of the year at the Valspar Championship.
Gary Woodland: He missed the cut in two of his three events. At the Valspar Championship, he couldn’t get through the cut line because of poor gameplay that saw 71 and 74 over the first two rounds.
Tony Finau: The Valspar Championship is the golfer’s first missed cut of the year. His total was 5-over in total.
Min Woo Lee: Min Woo Lee displayed a disappointing performance at the Copperhead Course, which saw 74 and 75 over two days.
Kevin Kisner: The NBC analyst of the WM Phoneix Open was in this week’s Valspar Championship but the golfer’s 13-over score couldn’t get him on to the weekend. He had to return home early and this happened in all five events that he participated in. Thus, it is to see which golfer grabs the trophy on Sunday from the rest of the field.
