[QUOTE="FlyNavy, post: 1403517, member: 720151"] Missing cuts is all part of the gig, even the top guys miss them once in a while (e.g. Dustin Johnson and Justin Thomas at the Open). I really believe Tiger's streak of 142 cuts made will go down as his greatest achievement, even if he breaks Jack's 18 Majors won. Going 7 years without having a bad weekend is mind-blowing.
