BROOKLINE, Mass. (WILX) - James Piot controlled his own destiny at The Country Club in Brookline, Massachusetts during the second round in the 122nd U.S. Open.

After shooting a first round 69 (-1), Piot didn’t need to do much to make the cut.

Instead, he bogied two of his final four holes and shot a 75 (+5) to miss the cut in his second career major appearance.

Starting on the back nine, Piot double-bogied the 440-yard Par 4 13th hole and missed a two-putt inside 6 feet on the 17th.

Piot’s group included 36-hole co-leader Collin Morikawa (-5) and John Rahm, tied with four others at -4.
