Spectators watch as players compete in the thrilling 2024 U.S. Open.
The 2024 U.S. Open is heating up with Ludvig Åberg leading the pack at five under par in his tournament debut. He’s the first since 1985 to achieve this feat at the U.S. Open. Behind him, Bryson DeChambeau, Thomas Detry, and Patrick Cantlay trail at four under par, promising an exciting finish. However, the cut line drama has led to unexpected exits, including legends Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson. As the competition intensifies, fans eagerly await the weekend rounds to see if Åberg can maintain his lead.
The lovely game of golf is buzzing with excitement as we enter the second round of the 2024 U.S. Open. After the drama unfolded on Friday, it looks like we have a new star on the rise. Enter Ludvig Åberg, who is taking the tournament by storm and is shining brightly at five under par! Can you believe it? This remarkable young golfer is making waves, as he becomes the first player since 1985 to hold the 36-hole lead in his U.S. Open debut.
While Åberg is basking in his glory, he’s not alone at the top. Right on his heels are three fierce competitors, all tied for second place, just one stroke behind at four under par. These golfers are no slouches either. We have the long-hitting Bryson DeChambeau, the talented Thomas Detry, and the steady Patrick Cantlay. With such a competitive field, there’s still a lot to play for as the tournament progresses, and we can’t wait to see how things shake out!
If you thought the leaderboard was shocking, wait till you hear about the cut line! Right before it settled at five over par, it had players on edge, fluctuating back and forth between four over and five over. Unfortunately, this meant that a whole slew of notable golfers were sent packing, much to the surprise of fans around the green.
In a rather disappointing turn of events, Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson will not be moving forward in the tournament. Woods, who opened with a four-over-par 74, was just one shot off making the cut, but luck wasn’t on his side this time. This marks the fourth time in the last five U.S. Open starts that he has failed to make the cut. Nevertheless, the veteran golfer took it in stride, expressing a sense of satisfaction with his play as he heads home.
On the other hand, Mickelson continues to struggle at this major event, having missed the cut for the third consecutive year and failing to make any birdies during his run. It’s tough to see legends like these fall short, but that’s the unpredictable nature of sports!
The list of players who didn’t make the cut is nothing short of jaw-dropping. Other casualties include prominent names such as Justin Thomas and Jason Day, signaling that this year’s U.S. Open is proving to be full of surprises! Here’s a breakdown of more notable players who faced early exits:
With so many big names missing from the weekend festivities, it’s a bittersweet moment for fans of these golfers. Yet, the competition is still brewing, and new narratives will undoubtedly build as we move forward.
The excitement is only beginning as we gear up for the weekend rounds of the U.S. Open. Will Ludvig Åberg hold onto his lead? Can Bryson DeChambeau or Patrick Cantlay make a last-minute push? One thing is for sure—this year’s tournament is shaping up to be one for the books. Stay tuned, everyone, because the best is yet to come!
