    Puerto Rico Open projected cut 2026: Past cut lines, at risk golfers and more explored

    Chandler Blanchet fired a low 8-under 64 in the Puerto Rico Open 2026 to take the first-round lead. Gordon Sargent is sitting one stroke back, while Jesper Svensson is at 5-under after Day 1 action.

    The Puerto Rico Open 2026 has a 119-player field for Day 2 after Nicholas Lindheim withdrew following the first round. Following Thursday’s play, the projected cutline is 1-under (as per Data Golf), and the top 39 and ties are expected to make it to the weekend.

    Speaking of the past results, the cutline was at even par in 2023, went lower to -3-under the following year, and was 4-under last season. However, this time, the cutline at the Puerto Rico Open is most likely to break the trend, as the probability of the line moving to 2-under is just about 16%.

    Speaking of the notables, Matt Wallace, Matthieu Pavon and Nick Dunlap are among the few big names who need a good second round to make the cut. On the other hand, Rasmus Højgaard, Miles Russell and Luke List are at 1-under and will be hoping to push themselves into a safer spot.
