AUGUSTA, Georgia -- Ángel Cabrera's controversial return to the Masters this week for the first time since serving a 30-month prison sentence for domestic abuse came to a close on Friday as the former champion missed the cut at Augusta National Golf Club.

The 55-year-old Argentine, who was imprisoned for threats and harassment against two of his ex-girlfriends, opened the tournament with a 3-over-par 75 and returned an 8-over 80 in Friday's second round to sit at 11 over on the week.

That left Cabrera, who was released from prison in August 2023, near the bottom of the 95-player starting field in his 21st Masters start.
