Tadd misses cut, again
BOISE, Idaho » Tadd Fujikawa is 0-for-4 in making cuts since turning pro this summer after shooting an even-par 71 yesterday at the $675,000 Albertsons Boise Open.
Fujikawa's two-day total of 1-under 141 left him three shots shy of the cut line in the Nationwide Tour event. The Moanalua High junior has failed to play through to the weekend at the PGA Tour's Reno-Tahoe Open, a Canadian Tour event and the Omega European Masters.
Jim McGovern leads the tournament with a two-day total of 14-under 128.
Fujikawa, who became the youngest player in Nationwide Tour history to card an ace, opened yesterday's 18 holes with seven consecutive pars. He bogeyed the eighth, but birdied the ninth to open with a 36 on the front.
Bogeys at Nos. 12 and 14 had him 2 over for his round, but he closed with birdies at the 17th and 18th holes to shoot even par for the day.
