Harrington misses cut, Power on the hunt after big second round at Palmetto Championship

America’s Chesson Hadley leads the way after the opening two rounds.

LAST UPDATE | 12 Jun 2021

PADRAIG HARRINGTON HAD another disappointing day at the Palmetto Championship in Congaree, missing the cut in South Carolina, while Seamus Power is on the hunt after an excellent second-day showing.

Harrington followed up his opening round 73 with a one over par round of 72 to sit three over for the tournament, with the projected cut at one over par.

Seamus Power carded a 66 to sit five shots off leader Chesson Hadley, in a tie for fourth. The Waterford added that to an opening round 70.

It was a mixed start for the Déise man on the back nine with a bogey on the 17th and birdies on the 15th and 18th. Four birdies, including one at the par-three fifth, saw him finish strongly.

Now six-under overall, Power is enjoying a share of fourth with Americans Harris English, Chez Reavie and Pat Perez as well as South African duo Erik van Rooyen and Wilco Nienaber.

America’s Chesson Hadley leads the way, sitting 11 under after the opening two rounds, two shots clear of Dustin Johnson. 

Halfway leader Hadley has missed 10 cuts in his last 12 stars, including his last five straight tournaments.

“No, I definitely didn’t see this coming,” Hadley told PGA.com. 

“I missed all those cuts in a row, and thank goodness I had three weeks off just to kind of hit the reset switch, get out on the boat, and just kind of forget about some things and spend some time with some family.”

Dustin Johnson sits second currently.
