Tiger Woods misses cut on PGA Tour comeback at Farmers Insurance Open
Former world number one cards level par second round at Torrey Pines Golf Course but fails to make the weekend
Tiger Woods’ long-awaited PGA Tour comeback came to a premature end on Friday after the former world number one missed the cut at the Farmers Insurance Open.
Woods had started the day at Torrey Pines Golf Course needing a low second round score to extend his participation into the weekend after a wayward four-over-par first round 76 on Thursday.
But despite perfect conditions on Torrey Pines’ more forgiving North Course, Woods again struggled to generate any momentum, carding a level par 72 which left him four-over after 36 holes.
Woods was left revising his plans for the weekend after a disappointing outing in his first PGA Tour event since August 2015.
“It’s frustrating, not being able to have a chance to win the tournament,” Woods said. “I didn’t make the cut.”

Woods, who now heads to the Middle East for the Dubai Desert Classic next week, took comfort from signs of improvement following his erratic opening round.
