Tiger misses cut at Congressional by 4 shots

Betallsports · Jun 27, 2014

BETHESDA, Md. -- Tiger Woods didn't last more than 36 holes in his return to competition.

Woods showed plenty of rust with his short game when he ran off four straight bogeys on the back nine Friday at Congressional to end any hopes of sticking around for the weekend at the Quicken Loans National.

He shot a 4-over 75 and missed the cut by four shots. It was only the 10th time Woods has missed a 36-hole cut on the PGA Tour, and 11th time worldwide. He was at 7-over 149.

Marc Leishman, Ricky Barnes and Oliver Goss were tied for the lead at 6-under 136. Goss is making only his second professional start.
Woods had not played since March 9 because of a back injury. He had surgery March 31.

I wish I could shoot as "bad" as he did for 36 holes on that course.

Don't need me to validate his career......if it wasn't for him nobody would care for the sport except those who are golf fans.....if this wasn't his tournament he would not be playing....he still has a lot of work to do since he hasn't played since March....

It would make for better television than we've seen in the first two majors. Watching the weeds grow in my garden was more exciting than the U.S Open was.
