Tommy Fleetwood finished 5 over and Viktor Hovland 6 over, leaving both outside the 4-over cut line at the PGA Championship at Aronimink.
Windy morning conditions drove scores higher and pushed the cut line upward, knocking out players who had opened solidly, including J.J. Spaun at 6 over and Michael Block at 5 over.
Fleetwood's exit stood out most: the world No. 6 arrived off a tie for fifth at last week's Truist Championship and is set for only his second missed PGA cut in 10 starts.
Bryson DeChambeau also missed at 7 over after briefly reaching 10 over, his third missed cut in the last four majors.
Justin Rose and Michael Kim survived with late eagles, while other notable exits included Robert MacIntyre, Russell Henley, Tyrrell Hatton, Adam Scott and Max Homa.
