SEAMUS POWER MISSED the cut at the PGA Tour Wyndham Championship on Friday, ending his slim hopes of a late outside bid to qualify for the FedEx Cup play-off series.
Power arrived in Greensboro with his fate in his own hands, knowing that a runner-up finish would propel him inside the top 70 in the rankings and earn him a place at next week’s St Jude Classic, the opening event of the play-offs.

But after opening with a two-under par 68 on Thursday, the Waterford native struggled to a four-over 74 on Friday, a round which included an early double-bogey as well as a closing triple-bogey on 18.
Those two holes proved costly as Power finished on two-over for the tournament, missing the cut by five shots.
His focus will now turn to the FedEx Cup Fall Series, an eight-tournament run which begins in late September, where he will hope to play his way inside the top 100 and secure a full PGA Tour card for 2027
Beau Hossler leads the tournament on 12-under par after 36 holes, one shot clear of Ben James and Jordan Smith on 11-under.
