text size

The cut came at 4-over-par 148 with 83 players making it to the weekend.

Positive movers

Peter Lonard. The Aussie made a big move in the second round to make the cut. After opening with a disappointing 6-over 78, Lonard bounced back with a 5-under 67 to get back to 1 over for the tournament.

John Merrick. What a difference a day makes. After a 6-over 78 in the first round, Merrick was 10 shots better in round two with a 4-under 68 to make the cut at 2 over.

Jimmy Walker. His turnaround was even better than Merrick's, believe it or not. Walker opened with an 8-over 80 in brutal, blustery conditions only to bounce back with a 4-under 68 to make the cut.

Negative movers

Kenneth Ferrie. He started the Turning Stone Resort Championship with an encouraging even-par 72 on Thursday, but missed the cut by three shots after a 7-over 79 on Friday.

Tim Petrovic. He shot a 1-over 73 on Thursday, but struggled on Friday with a 4-over 76 to miss the cut by one shot.

John Rollins. He had a 2-over 74 in the first round on Thursday, but had a difficult time on Friday, which led to a 4-over 78 to finish two shots outside of the cut.

On the number

Heath Slocum, Mathias Gronberg, Tommy Armour III, Rich Beem, Joey Sindelar, Ryan Moore, Ron Whittaker, Michael Bradley and Nathan Green made the cut on the number.

Notable missed cuts

Chris DiMarco. The Florida Gator missed the cut by one shot after rounds of 76-73.

Tim Herron. Like DiMarco, Herron was one shot off the mark. His rounds of 76-73 weren't enough to get it done.

Brad Faxon. Making his first start in over 13 months due to recovery time for injuries, Faxon shot rounds of 76-78 for a two-round total of 10-over total.
