Earlier this week, we shared the odds for the Masters, highlighting some big names considered favorites to contend. As is the Masters policy, the field was cut to the top 50 players and ties after Friday’s second round. The cut line was two over par, just one shot below the historical average. Here are some pros who usually stick around for the weekend but won’t be there this year.

Russell Henley (79-68)

After a first round of 79, it was easy to count Henley out. He got things going early on Friday and was looking like he might pull it off. A bogey on the 18th hole ended his comeback attempt and he missed the cut by one.

Dustin Johnson (74-73)

Dustin Johnson, 2020 Masters champion, doubled the 18th hole in Round 2 and that was it for him. He came into the Masters having missed three of his last five major cuts and hasn’t looked sharp on LIV, either. Betting markets listed him at +160 to miss the cut.

Keegan Bradley (74-73)

Keegan Bradley made a double on the front nine Friday and never found his footing after that. Bogeys at 14 and 17 meant he needed a birdie on 18 just to have a chance and it didn’t happen.

Tony Finau (75-73)

Tony Finau was in trouble after Round 1. Despite a strong front nine in Round 2, three bogeys on the back derailed his hopes.
