Jamie Lovemark, an Unheralded Pupil, Shines While a Star Stumbles

UNIVERSITY PLACE, Wash. — The player who was wild off the tee is finding fairways since he began working last year with Chris Como. But enough about Jamie Lovemark, the former Southern California star who has played his way into contention in his United States Open debut with rounds of 70 and 68 for a two-under-par 138.

One of Como’s other students, the three-time champion Tiger Woods, missed his second cut in this event in 19 starts with rounds of 80 and 76 at Chambers Bay Golf Course. Woods’s score of 16 over par was the second-worst in the 156-player field.
