You have to go back to 2022 to find the last time world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler missed a cut. That remarkable run came to an end Friday at the Genesis Scottish Open at The Renaissance Club, snapping a streak of 78 consecutive made cuts on the PGA Tour.
Outside of Tiger Woods' PGA Tour record of 142 consecutive made cuts, Scheffler's streak was the longest among active players and one of the most remarkable displays of consistency in the modern era.
Scheffler carded a 2-over 72 in the second round to finish two shots outside the cut line. After opening with a 2-under 68 on Thursday, he began Friday just three shots off the lead and appeared well positioned heading into the weekend. But a sluggish start quickly derailed his round, as bogeys on two of his first three holes dropped him behind the cut line. Despite settling in over the remainder of the day, he was unable to recover.
"Got off to a poor start and after that, I didn't really hit it close enough to give myself a bunch of looks," Scheffler said. "That's how you shoot over par."
