Kevin Sutherland finished in a tie for 67th place at the U.S. Open at 23-over-par 73-74-84-72=303, earning $17,965.00.
He survived the cut but not much else as Merion this week. Sutherland went just 6-for-46 in birdie opportunities to wrangle his best finish in his last 16 starts spanning just over two years. Today's payday leaves him with two starts on his Major Medical Extension to earn $313,854 and retain status. He's also short of securing conditional status by $57,631. Look for him again at this week's Travelers Championship. Jun 16 - 10:11 PM

Kevin Sutherland spun a bogey-free, 2-under-par 35-35=70 in his second round of the Zurich Classic of New Orleans but will miss the cut.

He'll have to settle with a step in the right direction at best this week. He went 5-for-5 in scrambling at TPC Louisiana today but converted only two birdies. After his opening 73, he reached the halfway point in 1-under 143, which grew progressively worse on the leaderboard after he signed his card earlier today. This is his fifth missed cut in as many tries this season. It leaves him with six starts on his Major Medical Extension to earn $355,587 and retain status.

Kevin Sutherland reached the midpoint of the Tampa Bay Championship in 7-over-par 74-75=149 and will miss the cut.

He was sitting just under the cut line with five holes to play, but then proceeded to card four bogeys on the way in. For the week, he recorded just birdies, both at the par-4 seventh hole. This drops him to 0-for-4 on the season. He now has seven starts remaining on his Major Medical Extension to earn $355,587 and retain status.

Kevin Sutherland shot 5-over-par 74-73=147 at the Northern Trust Open and will miss the cut.

Sutherland went a mere 3-for-21 in birdie opportunities at Riviera this week, but he also absorbed eight bogeys to guarantee the weekend off. Now 0-for-3 on the season, today's MC leaves him with eight starts on his Major Medical Extension to earn $355,587 and retain status.

Kevin Sutherland shot 2-over-par 70-68-78=216 at the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am and will miss the cut.

Sutherland was coasting to a payday until he made the turn at Spyglass Hill today. He was 1-over on the round before climbing back to even with a birdie at the 10th hole. Then the wheels fell off. After a bogey-6 at 11, he swallowed a 7 on the par-3 12th. He'd muster only five pars and a closing bogey coming in to fall short. This marks the first time in his career that he's begun his season with two missed cuts. He'll try to end the skid at next week's Northern Trust Open. The veteran now has nine starts on his Major Medical Extension to earn $355,587 and retain status.

Kevin Sutherland chased his opening 73 at the Waste Management Phoenix Open with another in his second round and will miss the cut.

Getting to the midpoint in 4-over 146 at this tournament will always result in a weekend off. While he certainly wouldn't have hoped for better, at least he logged two relevant rounds for the first time in nearly a year. Nevertheless, the missed cut leaves him with 10 starts on his Major Medical Extension to earn $355,587 and retain status.

Kevin Sutherland signed for a 2-over-par 36-37=73 following his opening round of the Waste Management Phoenix Open.

Sutherland hasn't played since last year's stop at Pebble Beach in mid-February due to additional recovery time from neck and back injuries. He hit 13 greens at TPC Scottsdale today but couldn't recover from a sketchy start at the par-4 second hole where a wayward drive led to a double bogey. On the bright side, he holed three birdies, including a conversion from 17'6" at 6. He also rolled in a par save from 13'3" at 13.

Kevin Sutherland did not commit to next week's Farmers Insurance Open.

As we relayed this past Wednesday, he was a long shot to return next week anyway. Look for him to make his 2013 debut at the Waste Management Phoenix Open on Jan. 31.

Kevin Sutherland is likely to return to competition at next week's Farmers Insurance Open or the Waste Management Phoenix Open in two weeks.

The 48-year-old veteran was all set to play this week's Humana Challenge but tweaked his lower back putting on gym shorts. He's been sidelined since February as he continued to recover from a combined neck and back injury sustained during a fall in Texas in 2011. With that area of his body feeling good again, we should expect to see him quite a bit this year. "One of my goals is to play 15 events, healthy and prepared, this year," said Sutherland, who has 11 starts on Major Medical Extension to earn $355,587 and retain status. "I haven't been able to do that in a year and a half. I've been playing without any sort of issues. I'm 100 percent – unless I do too much. Not the same 100 percent I was when I was 25, but relative."

Kevin Sutherland's status on the PGA TOUR via a Major Medical will extend into 2013.

The one-time TOUR champ went 2-for-4 early in the year before sitting out the rest of the season after missing the cut at Pebble Beach. It was speculated that he'd return after the Masters, but it didn't materialize. Whenever he comes back, he'll have 11 starts to bank $355,587 and retain status. (He's also $99,364 short of securing conditional status as a safety net.) Sutherland will turn 49 years of age in July.
