Lexi Thompson missed a 6-foot birdie putt on her final hole at the TPC Summerlin and had to settle for a 2-under 69, leaving her at least one shot outside the cut line in her bid to become the first woman in 78 years to make a 36-hole cut on the PGA Tour.
was pouring in putts from everywhere Friday and was on the verge of making the cut in the Shriners Children's Open. Two late bogeys were likely to give her the weekend off.
Her 69 was 1 shot short of the record by a female golfer on the PGA Tour -- Michelle Wie twice shot 68 in the Sony Open, once as a 14-year-old when she missed the cut by a single shot. Thompson's score to par of 2 under ties Wie's second rounds at the 2004 and 2006 Sony Open in Hawaii for the lowest by a woman in a round in PGA Tour history, according to ESPN Stats & Information.
Thompson made the turn and promptly holed a birdie putt from just inside 25 feet, and then she poured in a birdie putt from just inside 30 feet.It all changed with one swing -- and one smart decision. Her tee shot on the par-3 fifth was well to the right into the native area, the pin toward the right side of the green. Instead of taking a big risk by trying to hit out of the desert, she took a penalty drop for a clean lie 98 yards from the hole and hit wedge to 5 feet to escape with bogey.
