Ikeda shot rounds of 75-73 to easily miss the cut at the Houston Open.
ANALYSIS
Ikeda had quite a remarkable putting performance in his short week in Houston for the wrong reasons. In the first round he lost an incredible 6.3 shots on the greens alone, and averaged 2.2 putts per GIR. Ikeda has now missed the cut in two of his last three starts, and has yet to finish inside the top-25 in seven starts in 2018. Ikeda will head to Augusta to make his fourth appearance at the Masters. He missed the cut last year and his best finish was a 29th back in 2010.
