US Open Second Round: LIVE leaderboard and updates from Pinehurst No.2

Welcome to live golf scores, updates and commentary from the second round of the 2024 US Open at Pinehurst No.2.

Tiger Woods missed the cut and then said that 'may or may not be his last US Open' on day two at Pinehurst No.2 in North Carolina.

LIVE: US OPEN THIRD ROUND

Perhaps Woods' comment was just in frustration, we'll have to wait and see whether he decides to peg it up at Oakmont in 12 months time. 

Woods, 48, slumped to a lacklustre 3-over 73 to miss the cut by two shots on 7-over par. 

The 15-time major champion has played in just four tournaments this season, with his results now reading: WD-60-MC-MC. 

At the top of the board, Ludvig Aberg (69) leads the way on 5-under par. 

Patrick Cantlay (71), Bryson DeChambeau (69) and Thomas Detry (67) are locked just one shot back on 4-under par. 

Rory McIlroy slipped back but still very much remains in the hunt to land a fifth career major title and first in nearly 10 years. 

McIlroy, who last tasted major victory at the 2014 PGA, carded a lacklustre 2-over 72 to fall to 3-under par alongside Tony Finau (69) and Matthieu Pavon (70).

Former Masters champion Hideki Matsuyama (66) is a further shot back on 2-under par.

Elsewhere, PGA champion Xander Schauffele carded a solid 69 to move himself into the red on 1-under par alongside Tyrrell Hatton (71), Tom Kim (68), Akshay Bhatia (71), Tim Widing (68) and Corey Conners (70). 

It was a day to forget for runaway World No.1 Scottie Scheffler, who posted a rare 4-over 74 to fall back to 5-over par.

But the runaway World No.1 narrowly made the cut.

He will be looking to take advantage of fresh greens and make his move up the board early on Saturday.

Hatton starts with a dropped shot

Hatton -1, Fleetwood E (1)

The Englishman is already muttering away to himself after missing a six-footer to save his par at the first hole.

Spare a thought for Mackenzie Hughes

Hughes +6 (1) 

The Canadian gets off to an awful start by dropping four shots straight off the bat. 

Strap yourselves in for an eventful Friday.

Rory McIlroy major stat

Here's a cool little Rory McIlroy stat for you.

Not to put any more pressure on him to land a fifth career major title and his first in nearly 10 years.

The last three times McIlroy has started a major with a bogey-free round, he went on to win the 2011 US Open, 2012 PGA and 2014 Open.

Welcome to LIVE R2 updates from the 2024 US Open

Hello ladies and gents, Andy Roberts, editor of GolfMagic.com, back with you for LIVE second round updates from the 2024 US Open here at glorious Pinehurst No.2 in North Carolina.

Rory McIlroy starts the day in a share for the lead with Patrick Cantlay, and the Ulsterman will be looking to nose out in front as he tees off in the morning wave of groups with fresh greens.

To mark your card, McIlroy gets underway alongside World No.1 Scottie Scheffler and World No.2 Xander Schauffele at 7.29am local time, which is 12.29pm for UK fans. 

Scheffler started slowly with a 1-over par 71, while Schauffele went one better with a level-par 70.

The first groups are just 20 minutes away from opening up the second round, so fire up the kettle or load up something stronger (it's the weekend after all) as we take you through day two at the US Open.
