SOUTHAMPTON, Bermuda -- Egor Eroshenko already made history as the first Russian to play on the PGA Tour. It got even better Friday when he became the first Russian to make the cut.

Eroshenko shot 31 on his final nine for a 4-under 67 in the Butterfield Bermuda Championship, extending his weekend in his first time playing a tournament recognized by the Official World Golf Ranking.

"I'm super excited," said Eroshenko, who played four years at the University of Central Florida. "I'm still kind of in the fog not figuring out what's happening, but hopefully I can go grab some lunch and realize the cut is made and hoping for a good weekend.
