We are two rounds into the Chevron Championship, yet some great players have failed to make the cut. From champions to Solheim Cup winners, several names did not make it through the weekend.
The scores have not been particularly low, as Jin Hee Im and Atthaya Thitkul are making their way. Nelly Korda is just a stroke behind as she targets her second Major on the LPGA Tour.
"Majors, ain’t minor. Yeah, last year I mean, all the majors, they always play tough. There is a reason they’re called major championships at prestigious venues. These venues in particular really challenge all parts of one’s game," said Rose Zhang as quoted by Golf.com.
