Scottie Scheffler's streak comes to an end as Padraig Harrington misses cut

Tony Finau edged in front at the Houston Open with a second round 62 as world number one Scottie Scheffler's record streak of consecutive under-par rounds came to an end.

Padraig Harrington, however, will not be around for the weekend as a second-round 74 saw him miss the cut.

He started the day level par but a run of four bogeys in his first fives holes led to a quick descent on the leaderboard before a 33-foot putt saw him pick up a birdie on the par-five 16th to leave him on three-over par.

Heading to the first, his ninth hole, Harrington knew he'd have to shoot under par to have any chance of making the cut, but three bogeys would follow over his next four holes. Birdies were collected at the third and fifth holes, but he finished three-over par.

Finau also teed off from the 10th and he began steadily, picking up three birdies before a bogey on the par four first hole threatened to derail his momentum.
