Notable former champions miss PGA Championship cut
Jason Day at the 2023 PGA Championship Aaron Doster-USA TODAY Sports

Jon Rahm, Justin Thomas and Jordan Spieth were among those who rallied to make the cut at the PGA Championship on Friday, but a few other notable golfers were not as lucky.

Former major champions Jason Day (2015 PGA Championship) and Matt Fitzpatrick (2022 US Open) were among the golfers who missed the cut at this year’s PGA Championship at Oak Hill Country Club.

The cut line was at +5 145 for the two rounds. Spieth, Thomas, Phil Mickelson and Tony Finau were among those who just made the cut at +5, while Fitzpatrick and Rickie Fowler were among those who just missed the cut at +6. Day missed the cut at +8, which was the same score Gary Woodland carded despite a great par save.

Entering the weekend, there is a three-way tie for the lead between Scottie Scheffler, Corey Conners and Viktor Hovland, who are all sitting at 5-under par. Justin Suh and Bryson DeChambeau are tied for fourth at 3-under par.
