It barely rolled an inch. Fowler finished the hole with double-bogey and made another bogey two holes later. He posted 2-over 142 for the first two rounds at TPC Harding Park.

Fowler had made the cut in 14 consecutive majors. He entered the week ranked 79th in the FedExCup. Other players who finished the morning wave outside at 2 over or worse include 2010 FedExCup champion Jim Furyk (+2); Richy Werenski (+3), winner of last week’s Barracuda Championship; International Presidents Cup Team members Sungjae Im and Joaquin Niemann, who both finished 4 over, and Sergio Garcia (+6).
