After becoming the first woman to play in a PGA tournament since 2018, Lexi Thompson will likely miss the cut at the Shriners Children's Open.

Thompson looked strong to start the second round, beginning with back-to-back birdies on the first two holes. However, a few late bogeys on the fifth, eighth, and 10th holes ultimately proved to be the difference-maker.
