Day 2 of the 2024 Valspar Championship concluded with Kevin Streelman, Stewart Cink, Chandler Phillips, Mackenzie Hughes and Brendon Todd being the five players who took a joint lead at 6-under.

While there was some great golf, several big names disappointed fans at the Copperhead Course. Since the second round of the Valspar Championship couldn't be completed on Friday, the cut list wasn't released.

However, as per the Data Golf, the cutline is going to be at even-par, as several prominent players have fallen short of making the cut this week.

Here's a look at the seven top golfers who missed the cut at the Valspar Championship.


Seven top players to miss the cut at the 2024 Valspar Championship

1) Jordan Spieth

Jordan Spieth started his week well with a 2-under 69 on Thursday but missed the plot in the second round. He made four bogeys and birdied just one hole, aggregating at 1-over after 36 holes.

This is the second straight week that Spieth failed to advance to the final two rounds on the PGA Tour. After starting the season well, he seems to have lost a bit of consistency.


2) Sam Burns

Sam Burns shot an even-par 71 in the opening round of the Valspar Championship and 1-over 72 on Friday to aggregate at 1-over for two rounds.

It was Burns' worst performance at Copperhead Course, as he had never finished outside T30 at the event before. Moreover, this is his first missed cut of the season, where he has raked in four top-10s.


3) Keegan Bradley
