Scottie Scheffler headlines big names barely sneaking into weekend at Hoylake
HOYLAKE, England – Scottie Scheffler needed a nifty up-and-down from a greenside bunker Friday to make the cut on the number at The Open.
Near the face of a steep bunker on the par-5 finishing hole at Royal Liverpool, Scheffler popped his ball onto the front fringe, received a fortuitous kick toward the flag and had a kick-in birdie to safely get in the house at 3-over 145.
Scheffler, ranked 143rd out of 156 players in putting this week, was still 13 shots back of Brian Harman’s halfway lead.
