Golf: Lahiri may miss cut in FedExCup

hole out for an eagle from 90 feet was one of Anirban Lahiri’s few bright spots on yet another day of missed putts, as he carded five-over 75 in the Northern Trust 2017, the first of the FedExCup play-offs.

Lahiri’s 75 placed him 110th and in danger of missing the cut.

Though he was 61st starting the week and should stay on for the next event, too.

Lahiri is the first Indian to figure in the FedExCup play-offs. He qualified last year but skipped it.

The leader was Russell Henley, who found his form at the right time with a 64 after a series of not-so-good results.

Henley, unfamiliar with the course like most others in this field, took a conservative and it worked by getting him eight birdies.

It was his second-lowest score of the year. Lahiri started with a bogey-double to be three-over in two holes.
