Who missed the cut at the 2026 Wyndham Championship? 8 notables who won't play the weekend

At the 2026 Wyndham Championship, eight notable players failed to make the cut and will not participate in the weekend tournament. Jordan Spieth and Peter Malnati were the only two players to survive the cut, with Spieth achieving an even-par 70 by sinking a crucial 24-foot par putt. Malnati posted a remarkable 71 after hitting three birdies in his final four holes, despite initially doubting his successful birdie putt at the 18th hole.

Other players who missed the cut include Mac Meissner, who failed to convert a crucial 43-foot putt, leaving him three shots off the cut line. Keegan Bradley managed to keep his streak of 15 straight appearances in the FedEx Cup playoffs alive with three clutch birdies in a four-hole stretch.

Jason Day, Ryo Hisatsune, Brian Harman, Ryan Gerard, and Ben Griffin were also among the players who did not make the cut. Day finished his tournament with rounds of 71 and 73, missing the cut for the first time in his career. Hisatsune, who entered the week tied for the second-longest streak of made cuts on tour, needed a 24-foot birdie putt to extend his streak but fell short.

Harman, ranked 63th in the FedEx Cup points race, missed the cut by one stroke despite an impressive first round of 71. Ryan Gerard, who had a strong first round, struggled with his iron game and ranking 137th in SG: Around the Green, ultimately missed the cut by just one stroke. Ben Griffin, ranked 36th in the FedEx Cup standings, also missed the cut with back-to-back 69s and a cold putter.
