“It was just, it was just problem after problem.”

— Tiger Woods, who missed the cut by one stroke on Friday at the British Open, a tournament he has won three times. This is only the second time Woods has missed a cut in a major; the first was at the U.S. Open at Winged Foot in 2006. Scotland’s famous weather didn’t disappoint, delivering rain and high winds on the Turnberry course, but Woods’s wayward drives were to blame for his demise. Meanwhile, 59-year-old Tom Watson, himself a five-time winner of the British Open, held on to the the lead for the second-day, sharing the top spot on Friday with 29-year-old Steve Marino (who just learned on Sunday that he’d be playing in the Open). Which will rule the day–youth or experience? –Jessica Shambora
