For about four years, death, taxes and Scottie Scheffler making the cut were among the few things you could rely on.
For the first time since the 2022 FedEx St. Jude Championship, Scheffler missed the cut at the Scottish Open, ending a streak of 78 made cuts. It was the longest streak on the PGA Tour since Tiger Woods set the record of 142 consecutive cuts from February 1998 to May 2005.

Scheffler finished two shots outside the cut line after shooting a 2-over 72 on Friday to finish even par for the tournament. The 30-year-old was blunt in his assessment of his play.
"Got off to a poor start and after that, I didn't really it close enough to give myself a bunch of looks," Scheffler said. "That's how you shoot over par."
The cut for the top 65 and ties was not official until the second round was completed. Scheffler was tied for 88th when he missed a 6-foot par putt on the par-3 ninth to fall back to even-par 142.

Scheffler will look to turn the page quickly, as next week he will attempt to defend his title at The Open Championship. The 154th Open will be played at Birkdale, and Scheffler has not played the links course.
"A little different than I was planning," Scheffler said. "Figure out how I get down to Birkdale and go from there."

Scheffler was just three strokes off the lead to begin the day but struggled with the putter. He missed a 3 1/2-foot par putt on No. 11, his second hole. On the par-5 12th, his chip out of the high grass to a back pin caught a ridge and rolled into a bunker, leading to a second straight bogey.
Xander Schauffele had his streak of 72 straight made cuts end at Torrey Pines in January. The longest active streak now belongs to Matt Fitzpatrick at 29 in a row.
