Jordan Spieth suffered another blow Friday at the AT&T Byron Nelson, when he missed his third cut in his last four starts.
Playing near his hometown of Dallas, Texas, many thought Spieth would get back on track this week. Unfortunately, that did not happen as Spieth fired a 5-over 75 in Round 2 with a quadruple-bogey bogey 9 on the par-5 16th hole.

Spieth was well inside the cut line before the implosion that forced him to re-tee twice.
After climbing to No. 1 in the world ranking two years ago, Spieth has dropped down to sixth. He has not recorded a top 10 since winning at Pebble Beach in February.
Jason Kokrak grabbed the 36-hole lead at 12 under after a nearly flawless 8-under 62 Friday. He leads by five shots over Billy Horschel.
World No. 1 Dustin Johnson is tied for third at 6 under after back-to-back 3-under 67s.
