Tiger Woods missed the cut at the British Open, ending, he knows, what might have been his last competitive round on his favorite course.

Woods was, perhaps for the last time as a British Open competitor, on No. 18 on the Old Course at St. Andrews. He had sealed two triumphs here, completed the career Grand Slam here, dreamed for decades of being here.
