SALT LAKE CITY, Utah – The 2003 Masters Champion and former BYU Golf alum Mike Weir has missed the cut at the 2021 Masters after shooting five over through the first two rounds at Augusta National.
Weir, 50, began his Friday round at six-over-par and was only able to pick up one stroke during his second round.
His day began with a bogey on the first hole. He then birdied the third and the eighth to bring him back into red figures. However, back-to-back bogeys on nine and ten pushed him back to positive figures.
