The live-action is not to be missed by fans. However, the unfortunate news of some top names not qualifying after the 54-hole cut.
Top names who missed the cut after the third round at the American Express
The 156 players’ course started to see names failing to make the cut after the second round. However, top names after the third round shocked the golf world. On top of the list is Kevin Kisner, who has been on the news for his shots at TGL. He wasn’t able to make the cut with his average performance in all three rounds. After recording 71, 75, and 72, he started to pack early from the tournament.
Other than the four-time PGA Tour winner, some notable names who were in the top 25 also failed to make the cut after the third round. Wyndham Clark, the 2023 US Open winner, and 2024 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-AM winner secured a 15th position at the Sentry. He recorded rounds of 71, 69, and 71 totaling 5 under par, which could help with the cut.
Along with him, Cameron Young finished T8 but unfortunately failed to qualify with his 69, 74, and 75 rounds at the American Express. Now, with some top names missing, who do you think will take the title? Share your pick with us in the comments section below.
