Sport Briefly / Golf: Faldo loses his Village voice

Nick Faldo will have no further say in the Memorial Tournament at Muirfield Village, Ohio, after a second-round 74 left him on the wrong side of the cut. His 150 aggregate was two too many to keep his interest alive. 'I played badly, it's as simple as that. I've got some things to work on - mostly hitting the ball straighter,' Faldo said. Despite a bout of flu, Tom Lehman opened up a four-shot lead over his fellow American John Cook in yesterday's third round. Lehman had a third consecutive five-under-par 67 for a 201 total.
