SHEBOYGAN, Wis. (AP) — The Latest from the PGA Championship at Whistling Straits (all times local):
9:05 a.m.
Tiger Woods is signed up for next week’s Wyndham Championship. It doesn’t necessarily mean he’ll play.
After his second round finished up at the PGA this morning, he said he would discuss the plan with his team and decide in the next few days about whether to play next week in Greensboro, North Carolina.
Woods is ranked 186th in the FedEx standings. He would need to finish at least second alone to climb into the top 125 and make the FedEx playoffs.
During the post-round interview, Woods sounded like someone who knows he needs to play more golf to get his game in shape. He also sounded like someone whose 2015 season might, indeed, be over. He said he guessed his PGA Tour season might be coming to a close but that he’s still got plenty of golf to play around the world in exhibition and non-tour events.

Matt Jones is in the clubhouse with the lead at the PGA Championship.
He finished up a second round of 7-under 65 and is 11 under for the tournament. That’s two shots ahead of Jason Day and three in front of Justin Rose.
The final groups are wrapping up the second round. After a short break, the third round will begin, though Day and Jones won’t tee off in the final twosome until after noon.

No big surprise — Tiger Woods is heading home.
He played the last five holes of the second round at the PGA Championship at even par to finish at 4-over 148.
That is two outside the expected cut line. Woods will miss the cut for the third straight time in a major.
That has never happened before.
Matt Jones of Australia is 11 under with one hole to play, good for a two-shot lead over Jason Day, who wrapped up a round of 5-under 67 this morning.
There are a handful of groups finishing up the second round, which was suspended last night because of rain. Shortly after they’re done, the third round will begin.

Now, it’s Matt Jones in the lead at the PGA Championship.
Jones made a birdie to get to 10 under for the tournament, while fellow Aussie Jason Day finished his second round with a bogey and is in the clubhouse at 9-under 135.
About 60 players came back to Whistling Straits early this morning to finish the second round, which was suspended when a strong storm hit late Friday afternoon.
Jones will take a long break before teeing off for the third round later this afternoon.
Tiger Woods almost certainly won’t be around much longer. Returning for a 7 a.m. restart, he failed to get up and down from the rough on No. 14 and settled for bogey. He was at 4 over heading into his final hole. The projected cut was 2 over, so unless Woods holes out from the 18th fairway for an eagle, he’ll be done for the week.

Jason Day has a good chance of heading into the third round of the PGA Championship with the lead.
Tiger Woods has virtually no chance of sticking around for more than another hour or so.
Golf has started back up at Whistling Straits. About 60 players came back early this morning to finish the second round.
Day made a birdie on the par-5 16th hole to get to 10 under par. That puts him alone in the lead, one shot ahead of Matt Jones.
And Woods? He failed to get up and down from the rough on No. 14 and settled for bogey. That dropped him to 5 over, which is three shots outside of the projected cut line.
