What is the cut line at the 2024 Women’s PGA Championship? Who’s going home early?
In her last PGA Championship Lexi Thompson wants to go out with a bang and she’s looking to keep up her high level on Friday. The top of the leaderboard is crowded with 22 Golfers at 1-under par or better. Thompson was off to a quick start on Friday after going -3 through ten holes, but a double-bogey on 11 together with two more bogeys and a birdie on the back nine dropped her to 4-under par (-4) for the tournament, currently tied with Hinako Shibuno and Jin Young Ko. American Golfer Sarah Schmetzel is in the clubhouse with a 6-under par (-6) score after shooting 67 on Friday.
Players will be challenged to keep the ball between the trees at Sahalee Country Club in SaMMAmish, Washington. The fairways are narrow and keeping the ball between tree lines will be essential to score low. The par-72 course is playing at 6,731 yards, but the 7,500 trees aren’t the only obstacles players will face. There are six holes with water hazards and plenty of buckers to protect the greens, 56 of them scattered in the fairways and around the putting surfaces.
What is the cut line at the Women’s PGA Championship?
65 players and ties will make it to the weekend. The tournament began on Thursday with 156 players, which is the biggest field in women’s majors. Currently the projected cut line is at 3-over par (+3).
American phenom Rose Zhang is at 6-over par (+6) after a disappointing first round. Alison Lee also got of to a bad start Thursday and won’t be making the cut now that she’s 12-over (+12) par on Thursday.
Lilia Vu moved up the scoreboard Friday and will be playing this weekendand is currently at 1-over par (+1). Lydia Ko is at 4-over par (+4) and is 1 shot below the cut line.
We’ll be updating the cut line and players who are in and out as the afternoon progresses.
