Anirban Lahiri's disappointing run continued as he missed the cut at the Wells Fargo Championship here.
He followed up his first round 79 with a 71 to be eight-over for 36 holes and missed action for another weekend.
This is Lahiri's sixth missed cut in 14 starts and he has only one Top-10, at the Mayakoba Championships.
He will now need some quick results to ensure that he keeps his record of making the FedExCup play-offs each year since 2015.
Lahiri hit 13 of 18 greens in regulation during his second round at the Wells Fargo Championship, though it was better than the first day. Yet the first day's 79 did not help his cause as the cut fell at one-over.
Lahiri had four birdies and three bogeys in his one-under 71, but it was little too late to keep him for final two rounds.

Jason Dufner, who has struggled since 2017 moved into the lead at 11-under following a 63 in the second round. It is the first time he has a 36-hole lead since the 2017 Memorial.
Lying in second place is Joel Dahmen at 10 under, and Rory McIlroy is in 3rd at seven-under.
Dufner has changed everything from his swing coach to his equipment, to his caddie but things did not get better till this round. It matched his career-low score on the PGA Tour and giving him a one-shot lead going into the weekend at Quail Hollow.
McIlroy, playing on the other end of the course, was with Dufner until he dropped three shots over the last two holes. McIlroy made double bogey at No. 8, and then went over the green on No. 9 for a bogey and a 70. He is five behind and in the mix for a third title at Quail Hollow.
Dufner fell from world No. 41 to No. 124 and missed the cut 11 times.
Then he changed numerous caddies, actually four. He is also on fourth or fifth putter. It was the first time he shot 63 since Oak Hill in 2013, the year he won the PGA Championship.
