Brooks Koepka Falls Short as Majors Struggle Continue
Brooks Koepka shot 74 to sit 7 over and head home after missing the cut at the U.S. Open, part of a pattern of majors with limited success this year. Cameron Smith failed to make the weekend at a fifth straight major, while Patrick Cantlay extended a string of missed cuts. Collin Morikawa led a group of high-ranked players exiting early, and Padraig Harrington received a thunderous ovation before a high-scoring exit. Xander Schauffele made his 15th straight major cut, Dustin Johnson kept a clean major-miss streak but narrowly avoided it, and veterans Lee Westwood, Phil Mickelson, and Justin Leonard advanced to the weekend, Leonard notching his first made cut since 2013.
