Colin Morawa struggles at the Open 2024. Can he recover after four over round? The open championship got off to a rocky start for former Calgolfer Colin Morikawa who struggled to find his footing in the challenging weather conditions at the Royal Portrait Golf Club in Northern Ireland. The chilly, windy, and rainy weather proved to be a perfect storm for Morikawa, who ced a disappointing four over 75 in the first round. Moriawa’s poor start has put him in a tough spot and he’ll need a strong round on Friday just to make the cut. The top 70 golfers and ties will advance to Saturday’s third round and Morikawa currently finds himself tied for 115th after one round. He’ll begin the second round eight strokes back with five golfers including Harris English of the United States, Jacob Scoff Olison of Denmark, Hatungi of China, Christian Bizuinh of South Africa, and Matt Fitzpatrick of England finishing their rounds with impressive scores of four under 67. But here’s where it gets interesting. Scotty Sheffller, the number one ranked player in the world and the pre-ournament favorite, is just one stroke off the lead with a three under pass 68. He’s tied with three other golfers, and it’s clear that the competition is heating up. And this is the part most people miss. Morawa’s struggles aren’t just limited to this tournament. He missed the cut at the Scottish Open last week and it seems like he’s still trying to find his rhythm. As the number six ranked player in the world, Moriawa was expected to be a top contender for the Open title, but he’s put himself in a difficult position. Moriawa’s history at the Open Championship is a mixed bag. He won the tournament in 2021 for his second major title, but he missed the cut the next two years and finished tied for 16th last year. He has six PGA tour wins, but none since the Zo Championship in October 2023. So, what went wrong for Morawa on Thursday? His trouble started with the first hole, which he bogeied. He also finished his round with a bogey, giving him five bogeies to go along with his lone birdie on the sixth hole. Meanwhile, other former Cal golfers are also in the field at the open championship. Bayong Han and had an even tougher time than Morikawa, finishing with a 5 over pass score of 76. Michael Kim had the best round of the four Excel golfers, getting a birdie on the last hole to finish with a three over pass score of 74. Samson Jang, who qualified for the open by finishing as the runnerup at the final qualifying event in Liverpool, England earlier this month, carded a six over pass 77 in the opening round. As the tournament heats up, it’s clear that Moria will need to bring his agame if he wants to make a comeback. But can he do it? That’s the question on everyone’s mind. What do you think? Can Morawa turn his game around and make a run for the title? Let us know in the comments. Colin Morikawa misses the cut at the Open Championship 2024. Goff’s cruel twist. Colin Morikawa’s hopes dashed at the Open Championship. Friday proved to be a dismal day for California alumni at the Open Championship as all four former Golden Bears scorers failed to make the cut. The most shocking exit was that of Colin Moriawa, a two-time major champion seeking his third title and first win since October 2023. But here’s where it gets intriguing. Has Morawa’s UK curse struck again? Morawa, who triumphantly lifted the Open Championship Trophy in 2021, has since struggled on UK soil. This year’s event at the Royal Portrait Golf Club in Northern Ireland was no exception. A disappointing three over 74 in the second round left him at 7 over for the tournament, far from the one over cut line. Consequently, he tied for 130th place out of 156 golfers, failing to advance to Saturday’s third round, which only the top 70 golfers and ties achieved.

He stands at 10 under for the tournament, narrowly ahead of England’s Matt Fitzpatrick by a single stroke. Cal alumni’s collective struggle. Michael Kim’s second round score of one over par 72 marked by bogis on three of his final five holes left him at four over just shy of the cut. Bayong Han’s even par round of 71 on Friday couldn’t redeem his two round score of five over par positioning him well below the cut line. Samson Jangs dream was short-lived. After earning his spot through a final qualifying event, he shot a two over 73 to finish at 8 over for the tournament. Moria’s caddy conundrum paired with new caddyy Billy Foster for both the Scottish Open and the Open Championships. Moriawa’s results were underwhelming, missing the cut in both events. With Fosters’s temporary steam ending, Moriawa is set to have his fifth different Caddy since April at his next event. Is Caddy stability the key to Moriawa’s resurgence? Moriawa’s second round was a mixed bag with three birdies overshadowed by four bogeies and a double bogey. What do you think is the primary factor in Moria’s recent UK performances?
