“Long drive back to Dallas” – Fans react to Jordan Spieth missing the cut after first-round lead at Sony Open

Jordan Spieth had a shocking Day 2 at the Sony Open in Hawaii. From the lead on the first day, he wasn't able to make a cut, thanks to his score of 75 in second round.

With this, he became only the second player in the last four years to miss the cut after holding the lead in the first round.

Fans had something to say about this unexpected turn of events.

"Ouch".

"More time for glamping".

"From sugar to ish..."

True.

For the uninitiated, Spieth owns an RV.

A bit of a wordplay.

One user found it funny.

This user felt it was intentional.

This user probably lost a bet.

Huge loss indeed.

A couple of takes on Spieth's RV.

We wish they could.

One user had something to say about Spieth's interview this week.

That's what great players do.

"It was a weird, weird day": Jordan Spieth

Chris Kirk leads after two rounds in Hawaii

After a dramatic turn of events, Jordan Spieth said it was just a bad day at the office for him and it was not as if he felt anything different.

"I feel like I was on a really bad deck of cards today. I made a couple bad swings off the tee but other than that I didn’t play that different. I just ended up a foot into the rough here, or right behind a tree here," said former No. 1.

“It was a weird, weird day. Left like six or seven putts short, in the heart, thought the greens were going to be faster. Just a really off day,” he added.

From the start, Spieth struggled with his accuracy off the tee as could only hit just six fairways. On Thursday too, he hit just seven fairways but the misses proved to be costlier in the second round.

“I just didn’t drive it as well today,”said Spieth.

Chris Kirk who topped the leaderboard after Day I at the Sony Open. Kirk shot a score of 65 in round 2 in Hawaii. His aggregate after two rounds is 11 under.

He had a runner-up finish in Hawaii upon returning to the Tour after battling depression and alcoholism, which was his last chance to retain the Tour Card.

Kirk hasn't won in eight years on Tour.

"I felt good going into today and after playing really well yesterday you want to come out and hit some solid shots and kind of ease into it. I did not ease into it at all. Really nice putt I made on one, and then couple pitching wedges on two and three that I hit pretty close," said Kirk.

Taylor Montgomery fell just behind Kirk with a score of 4 under in the second round. He is tied with J.J. Spaun to sit second on the leaderboard. Spaun was leading into the second round until he bogeyed the last hole to settle for a tied 2.

"Just one bad swing," Spaun said. "I'm in a good spot going into tomorrow and the weekend".

Spaun is hopeful he can win from here.

"I hope to do that soon," he concluded.
