With only 89 players competing, the Masters has the smallest field of the four major championships. Even fewer make the cut, which will most likely come Friday night, assuming they can catch up after Thursday’s weather delay.
The top 50 players and ties make the cut at Augusta National Golf Club. It used to be top 50 and ties and those within 10 shots of the lead, but that rule was changed in 2020.
Well, after the opening day at the Masters, there are plenty of notables who have work to do come Friday to make the weekend.
Although the first round didn’t finish Thursday, the second round is beginning on time Friday morning while the opening round finishes up. With a good weather forecast, the second round is expected to conclude Friday night.
