Former Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo saw his bid to make a PGA cut fall apart on the front nine Friday. Akshay Bhatia, 17, who was making his second PGA start, also missed the cut with a four-over 76 on Friday. The Tour heads to Las Vegas next week for the Shriners Hospitals for Children Open.
