Cameron Smith ‘beers deep’ at pub before making cut

Start champion Cameron Smith was “beers deep” during the pub before belatedly realising he had made the cut for the round that is 3rd of Australian Open.

The entire world number three left the program in Melbourne after carding a “rubbish” second-round 73 to stay two over par, that was over the projected cut line.

But later starters struggled in breezy conditions at Victoria so a shot had been moved by the cut to take in those on two over.

“we was not actually expecting it, to be honest,” said the Australian.

“I became pretty quick to your pub, and yeah, was probably a few a lot of beers deep after which I realised we’d an tee that is early, therefore I got in in the waters and had been a good child the rest of the evening.”

Smith – whom earlier this joined up with the Saudi Arabian-backed LIV Golf Series – shot a one-under 69 in their third circular year.

But he did ultimately miss the cut since the tournament features a cut that is 2nd the next round and their one-over total of 213 ended up being two shots too many.

The dual-gender that is inaugural views just the top 30 players from both the males’s and women’s fields contest the final round at Victoria.

Australia’s Adam Scott tops the men’s leaderboard having an total that is 11-under of while Jiyai Shin of South Korea leads the women on 14 under.
