Nothing went right for Scottie Scheffler, ranked number one in the world, during the second round of the US Open. The star became so frustrated that he threw his clubs on the ground.

Despite this, the American made the cut and will play on over the weekend.

Scottie Scheffler struggled round in 74 shots in the second round of the US Open in North Carolina, four over par. It was his first round ever without a birdie in a major.

The effort made the world number one so frustrated that at one point during the game he threw a club in the air and later slammed another into the ground.

After two rounds, Scheffler is now five shots over par, which gives him a tied 57th place. This means that despite everything, he made the cut and will play on over the weekend.

This golf course can be unpredictable at times, and maybe it has got the better of me over the past few days. I'll sit down and think about how I can move forward, says Scottie Scheffler after the round.

Ludvig Åberg is leading after the second round, with a total of five under par. In a tied second place are Americans Bryson DeChambeau and Belgian Thomas Detry, on four under par.

Swede Tim Widing is also doing well, in a tied ninth place after going round in 68 shots, two under par. This means that he is a total of one under par after two rounds.
