How the elite players are faring at the halfway mark of the Genesis Invitational
Eight of the world’s top 10 are competing at Riviera this week but they’ve had mixed fortunes over the first 36 holes
Longest active cuts made streak on Tour (25) will end today for Rory McIlroy.

117 events shy of Tiger's recognized record of 142. Based on average starts his last 5 seasons, Rory would have had to keep the streak going through the 2028 Arnold Palmer Invitational to pass Tiger.
There's no getting away from it, Rory has endured a miserable two days and some sloppy play saw him miss the cut by a whopping seven shots. The World No.7 made just three birdies and traded those with seven bogeys and a double. He was virtually last in the field (115th of 120) in SG: Putting while his iron play was weak too (94th on Approach). Back to the drawing board.
