Rolex world No. 1 Lydia Ko missed the cut for just the second time in an LPGA event Friday at the Kia Classic.
It was Ko’s second MC in 95 LPGA starts as an amateur and professional.
Ko missed a 10-foot putt for par at the last hole at Aviara Golf Club in Carlsbad, Calif., leaving her one shot outside the cut line. She bogeyed two of her last three holes to shoot even-par 72 and ended up at 2-over 146.
This West Coast swing marked a high point for Ko last year.
