Talk about a fall from grace for Tiger Woods.

After shooting a 10-over 80 in his worst U.S. Open round ever on Thursday, Woods got off to a rough start in Friday’s second round at Chambers Bay. Walking through some thick rough on the links-style course, Tiger lost his balance and landed on his backside.

He’ll probably be able to plant himself on the couch to watch the rest of the tournament as he’s expected to miss the cut.
