Rickie Fowler among these 7 big names to miss the cut at the Valero Texas Open

SAN ANTONIO — The field at the 2024 edition of the Valero Texas Open was perhaps the best in decades, with Rory McIlroy, Max Homa, Hideki Matsuyama, Jordan Speith and other top players getting in some work before heading off to Augusta National while those on the outside were looking to earn their way into the 2024 Masters field.

But while everyone came on TPC San Antonio’s Oaks Course with the intent of getting their share of a $9.2 million purse a number didn’t make it the weekend as strong winds and fast greens wreaked havoc on a number of players who were sent packing.

The cut was projected at even par for much of the afternoon, then fluctuated a few times before finally settling at 1 over.

Here’s a look at some of the big names on the wrong side of the cutline.
