Ryan Moore came through in the clutch to close 2023, becoming the only player to move into the top 125 in the FedEx Cup Fall Series to earn full status for 2024.
He then missed the cut in the first four events of the new year before finally snapping that skid with a T-60 at the Mexico Open at Vidanta last week.
This week, Moore holed out from 113 yards for eagle on the par-4 13th en route to a 65 and things appeared to finally be trending up.
Friday, however, was not pretty, as Moore was 14 shots worse, shooting an 8-over 79, his worst round by five shots in 2024 and his worst round overall since a 79 in the final round of the 2022 Memorial.
All the damage in the second round at the Cognizant came between the second and 13th hole, as Moore went 9 over during that 12-hole stretch.
