Tiger Woods, the 15-time major champion, has successfully made the cut in 24 consecutive Masters Tournaments, setting a new record. His second-round score of 72 at Augusta National secured his place in weekend play, cementing his legacy in golf history.
Despite facing challenging windy conditions, Tiger managed to finish the second round at 1-over par. With this performance, he becomes the sole male golfer to make the cut in 24 consecutive Masters tournaments, surpassing the shared record previously held with Fred Couples and Gary Player, as reported by the PGA.
The legendary golfer suffered a near-fatal car crash in early 2021. Finally, with a fused ankle and a fused back, Tiger has broken a record that won’t be challenged for decades to come.
Tiger entered the tournament with only 24 holes of PGA golf played this season. In his quest for a sixth green jacket, the experienced golfer must push through pain and fatigue to keep competing at the highest level.
“It means I have a chance going into the weekend. I’m here. I have a chance to win the golf tournament. I don’t know if they’re all going to finish today, but I’m done. I got my two rounds in. Just need some food and some caffeine, and I’ll be good to go,” Tiger said after the second round, according to Golf Digest.
