A professional golf tournament consists of 4 rounds. Roughly 50% of the professional field (professional players competing) are eliminated if they fail to equal or better the score shot by the 65th lowest professional. This procedure is usually simply referred to as "the cut".

Can often be heartbreaking if a player misses by 1 shot or produce a huge sigh of relief if a player makes it through to the final 2 rounds on the "cut line".
