Trunk Slammers: Farmers Insurance Open

Kevin Na, +3: It has been a pretty good start to 2011 with a T20 and a T5. It's his first missed cut on the PGA Tour since last year's U.S. Open when he shot 80 and 77.

Rocco Mediate, +3: Thanks for the memories, nice shot, see you in Phoenix.



Andres Romero, +3: His first event of the year and he fails to play the weekend.

Robert Garrigus, +3: His performance at the Hyundai Tournament of Champions -- losing in a playoff to Jonathan Byrd -- has not carried over as he's missed back-to-back cuts.

Steve Marino, +5: Similar situation for Marino who went from T2 to T66 to CUT.

Davis Love III, +5: After all four rounds in the 60s and a T9 at the Sony Open, he played both rounds over par at Torrey Pines.

Charley Hoffman, +6: It would appear the worst thing that could have happened to Hoffman was to have the off-season cut short his strong close to 2010. In 2011 he's posted a T25 (in a 32-man field) and been cut twice.

Stephen Ames, +6: After a solid 2011 debut last week -- four sub-par rounds and a T33 -- Ames shots back-to-back 75s to miss the weekend. He hasn't posted a top-10 on the PGA Tour since last March.

Michael Sim, +7: It must be somewhat disappointing for the Aussie, given his T2 here last year.

TRUNK SLAMMER OF THE WEEK

Ryuji Imada, +3: His performance was the definition of trunk slamming. After opening with a five-under 67, he played the back nine at Torrey Pines South eight-over with five bogeys and a triple.
