Justin Thomas leads list of 7 big names to miss the cut at 2024 Genesis Invitational

Gone after 36.

The PGA Tour’s third signature event of the season has reached its midway point, meaning the 36-hole cut has been made at the Genesis Invitational in Pacific Palisades, California, at Riviera Country Club.

The top 50 and ties, plus anyone within 10 shots of the lead, earned Saturday tee times.

Tiger Woods withdrew from the event Friday afternoon due to illness (and as you’d expect, social media went into a frenzy).

Patrick Cantlay, who last won at the 2022 BMW Championship, leads the way at 13 under, five shots clear of a group at 8 under that includes Jason Day, Luke List and Mackenzie Hughes.

Here are 7 players who are leaving the Los Angeles area a few days early.
