Rory McIlroy joined a who’s who of stars in failing to make the cut at the Open and claimed “the wind got the better of me” as he departed Royal Troon.
Bryson DeChambeau, Tiger Woods, Cameron Smith, Viktor Hovland, Tommy Fleetwood, the 2023 US Open champion Wyndham Clark and a clearly furious Tyrrell Hatton were among the names to join the world No 2 in missing out on the weekend. The cut was at six over par.
