Smith Misses Cut After Challenging Second Round in England
|
Golfer Camiko Smith has concluded his participation in the Clutch Tour's Q Hotels Collection Open, missing the cut after a challenging second round at Forest Pines.
Smith, competing in the professional event, carded a ten-over-par 83 on Thursday, adding to his opening round of 77. This brought his total to a score outside of the cut line for the tournament.
His second round saw him record one birdie, a solitary bright spot in a round hampered by three bogeys and four double bogeys. The erratic scorecard ultimately meant Smith fell short of advancing to the weekend's play.
The performance marks a difficult outing for the Bermudian, who will now turn his attention to future events on the professional circuit.
