Get ready for a thrilling day at The American Express, where the PGA Tour's unique cut-down event takes center stage! The pressure is on as players fight to stay in the game. But here's the twist: this tournament is notorious for its Round 3 cut, leaving many wondering who will make the cut and who will fall short.
In a surprising turn of events, defending champion Sepp Straka finds himself 2 over par, needing a near-perfect round to secure his spot. Can he replicate the magic of Blades Brown's 60 from Round 2? Alex Noren, right on Straka's heels, is also in a tight spot, along with other notable names like Matt Fitzpatrick and Kurt Kitayama.
The cut line at The American Express is a fierce battle, and only the top 65 players plus ties after Round 3 will survive. After Round 3, the cut line stood at a challenging 11 under par. Last year, a total of 71 players made the cut at 9 under par, but this year's competition is even more intense.
Some big names have already missed the cut, including Brandt Snedeker, Taylor Pendrith, and Justin Rose. But who will join them, and who will defy the odds?
Out of the initial 156 golfers, only 65 are guaranteed a spot in the final round. That number can increase due to ties, creating an even more dramatic finish.
So, how can you catch all the action? Rounds 3 and 4 will be broadcast nationally on Golf Channel from 4-7 p.m. ET. For those who prefer streaming, the ESPN app (with the Select plan) and Fubo (with a free trial) are your go-to options.
And this is the part most people miss: The American Express is not just about the cut. It's a showcase of golf's finest, with an opportunity to witness incredible comebacks and unexpected triumphs.
