Scottie Scheffler missed the cut at the Genesis Scottish Open on July 10, ending a remarkable streak of 78 consecutive events and 1,428 days of making the cut. The 30-year-old world No. 1 golfer's lackluster play came just one day after he commented on his receding hairline, joking that turning 30 won't have any effect on his hair loss. The streak was the longest on tour, with the next closest being Matt Fitzpatrick at 28 consecutive cuts. Despite the missed cut, Scheffler has had a strong 2026 season, finishing in the top 25 in all 14 events he has played, with one win, four runner-up finishes, and three third-place finishes. He expressed pride in his consistency and noted that some signature events no longer have cuts. This isn't the first time Scheffler's hair has made news; last July, his sponsor TaylorMade faced backlash for appearing to photoshop hair onto his head in an Instagram post.
