A second round of 77 has seen Paul bundled out of the Rex Hospital Open in Raleigh in North Carolina.

Five droppped shots in his last five holes of round two saw the good work of his first round of 69 brought undone, eventually missing the cut by four. 

The Nationwide Tour now has a break of one week before its next event in Knoxville, taking a break while the focus of the golfing world falls on Torrey Pines. Paul is at this stage planning on playing in Knoxville.
