The 152nd Open Championship brought some theatrics just two days into the four-day tournament.

Some of the top players in the world already have their bags packed and are thinking about where they're going on vacation next week, as World No. 2 Rory McIlroy put it after his round.

McIlroy wasn't the only big name to miss the cut. The World's Nos. 4, 5, 7 and 9th-ranked players, including Bryson DeChambeau and Ludvig Aberg, also missed the cut at Royal Troon.
