Arjun Atwal missed the cut yet again with a second round 71 at the Wyndham Championships, an event that has been one and only title on the PGA Tour.
The Indian golfer, who does not have a card this season and is dependent on invitations, finished with 71-71 and missed the cut by a wide margin as it fell at two-under 138.
Also missing the cut was Daniel Chopra (76-70).
Heath Slocum, who came to the event at Wyndham Championship ranked 128th, needs to finish third or better tomorrow to advance to FedEx Play-offs.
After a second-straight 65, Slocum is tied at the top of the leaderboard with Scott Langley, who is safely in the Playoffs after coming in ranked 81st.
Langley matched Slocum's 65 in second round.
The two are one stroke ahead of Brian Stuard, Nick Watney, Martin Laird and Andrew Svoboda, who birdied the 17th hole to get to 10 under but missed the green and a 7-footer to save par at No. 18. Svoboda and Watney shot 64s, Stuard had a 65 and Laird signed for a 66.
Slocum's last top-10 finish came way back in 2010 when he won The McGladrey Classic.
