Gore, a Hart High of Newhall and Pepperdine product, tried a different driver for the first time Friday and fired a second-round 71. But his 73-71-144 midway total missed the cut by one stroke. He described his two rounds as rough. Gore had a nice second shot on the par-5 17th hole. He put it about 15 feet from the flag but his eagle attempt was inches short. Gore, who became an overnight sensation with his play in the U.S. Open - where he shared the midway lead played in the final twosome on Sunday - missed his first four cuts of the season and has missed five of six overall. --Hot shots: Trevor Immelman hit a hole-in-one on Riviera's bunker-surrounded par-3 16th hole Friday, going 2 under par on one swing with a 7-iron shot from 164 yards. Then Brian Gay went 3 under par on one swing, knocking a 5-iron shot into the cup from 198 yards for a double-eagle on the 503-yard first hole. ``I hit a good drive down the fairway. It went to just the end of the fairway there, in the first cut,'' Gay said. I had 198 to the hole. It fell right in. Just trying to land it a few yards short, and it released and went right in the hole.'' But not without some buildup drama from a cheering gallery: ``The roar kept getting louder and louder,'' Gay said of the first double eagle he has ever had. We could tell it kept getting closer, and then they went crazy.''
