Despite bogeying the seventeenth and 18th holes to finish Saturday’s weather-delayed second spherical on the Masters, Tiger Woods survived to play the remainder of the weekend in Augusta, Ga.
The five-time Masters champion completed on the lower line at 3 over par, tying the event report of 23 consecutive made cuts shared by Gary Player and Fred Couples.
Couples, at 63, turned the oldest participant ever to make the lower on the Masters. The 1992 Augusta champion is tied for fortieth place at 1 over par.
Brooks Koepka leads the sphere at 12 below after carding a 5-under 67 within the second spherical. Spain’s Jon Rahm is 2 pictures again after bogeys on two of his final three holes Saturday morning. Amateur Sam Bennett is alone in third at 8 below after back-to-back rounds of 68.
Notable gamers who did not make the lower included World No. 2 Rory McIlroy of Northern Ireland (5 over) and Justin Thomas (4 over).
Woods was 2 over via 11 holes when play resumed on a wet Saturday morning at Augusta National Golf Club. After three straight pars, he birdied the par-5 fifteenth with a 27-foot putt.
Woods two-putted for par on the sixteenth earlier than making bogey on every of the final two holes to place his weekend plans in jeopardy.
His tee shot on the ending gap sailed into the pine timber on the left of the golf green. He punched out to about 66 yards and his strategy shot was effectively brief, however he two-putted to complete at 3 over.
“I’ve always loved this golf course, and I love playing this event,” Woods mentioned. “Obviously I’ve missed a couple with some injuries, but I’ve always wanted to play here. I’ve loved it. I got a chance to play on the weekend.”
