Masters and US Open champion Jordan Spieth fired a two-over 73 to miss the halfway cut at the Deutsche Bank Championship on Saturday.
It was the first time in his young career that the 22-year-old Spieth has missed back-to-back cuts on the USPGA Tour.
"It is almost like a bad dream," said Spieth, who added he is going to take a few days off after Saturday's disappointing round.
Spieth had bogeys on three of his final six holes as he finished 36 holes at six-over 148.
Charley Hoffman was the 36-hole leader on 130.
It was just the fourth missed cut of the season for Spieth who was seeking to rebound this week after failing to get into the weekend action last week at The Barclays in New Jersey.
The American's two week stint as world number one came to an abrupt end at The Barclays, with Rory McIlroy regaining the top spot even though he didn't play last week.
Spieth had toppled McIlroy from the number one ranking three weeks ago with a runner-up finish to Jason Day at the PGA Championship.
