Tiger Woods will play more golf this weekend after making the cut at the 2023 Masters. By making the cut, however, Woods has made history.
Woods has made the cut in 23 consecutive starts at the Masters, which ties fellow Masters champions Fred Couples and Gary Player for most all time.

Tiger Woods Keeps Cut Streak Alive At 2023 Masters
Woods was in jeopardy of missing the cut due to back-to-back bogeys at 17 and 18 to finish at +3.
The project cut line was set at +2 when Woods finished. To make the cut, Woods would need Justin Thomas or Sungjae Im, who were still completing their second round, to finish at +3 or worse.
Thomas bogeyed three of his last four holes to finish at +4, meaning Woods and the other players at +3 will make the cut. Thomas, however, misses the cut, which ends his consecutive Masters cut streak at seven.
Woods has not missed the cut since winning the Masters in 1997. Woods is a five-time Master champion with wins in 1997, 2001, 2002, 2005, and 2019. Since 1997, Woods did not participate in four Masters tournaments (2014, 2016, 2017, and 2021) due to injuries and surgeries.
Brooks Koepka Leads The 2023 Masters
Brooks Koepka is the leader heading into the final two rounds. Koepka sits alone at the top of the leaderboard at -12.
Koepka will be joined by Jon Rahm, who is -10, in the final group.
Amateur Sam Bennett sits at -8, with Collin Morikawa and Viktor Hovland at -6.
Whether the third round will start on Saturday is the question at hand. Pouring rain and horrendous weather conditions may push back the start time of the third round.
